Marco is such a great host! He gave us lots of helpful information prior to check-in. He then met us for check-in to show us the flat and give us tips for getting around and enjoying the city. The neighborhood was charming and full of reasonably priced shops and restaurants. The flat is spacious and so clean, and being on a canal made the experience feel even more special. Oh, and every once in awhile a gondola will go by the window!
