I was in Venice for a week because of a conference. The flat of Filippo is just in 5 minutes’ walk from the conference center. It was perfect! My room was quite spacious and very clean with a desk, some shelves, good comfy chair and WiFi. I didn't have really hot weather but it was sunny and above +30 and it was pleasantly cool inside. I had some small shops and restaurants around and the beach was in maybe 5-10 min walking:) Filippo is very friendly and helpful, he gave me tips about Lido and borrowed one of his bicycles. I enjoyed my stay and if I will go to Venice again I would prefer to stay in the Filippo’s place.
