Stefano is a great host. Although I was unable to meet him, I met his friend Regina who is also great. She helped lead us to the apartment, checked us in, and walked us through everything we needed to know about using the amenities in the apartment (washing machine, dishwasher, Vaporetto lines nearby, etc)
The apartment looks just like the pictures and overlooks a canal. Often we would see gondolieri pass through. The apartment is steps away to everything while being tucked away on a street that leads to a dead end, allowing for a quiet retreat after a long day of exploring Venice. Lots of Cicchetti, shops, and bakeries less than a minute away. Rialto bridge under 10mins away. The Fondamente Nove Vaporetto stop just 6minutes away allows for quick access if you plan a day on Murano and Burano.
We couldn’t be happier with the apartment. It’s beautifully laid out, clean, spacious, and has gorgeous bathrooms. Staying with a family of 6 worked perfectly.
