My husband and I spent a wonderful week at Andrea's house and it was everything we had hoped to find in an apartment. We've been to Venice several times so we knew it was a perfect location - very much of a neighborhood compared to the St. Mark's area with lots of places to eat and drink, people going about their daily business, small shops, wonderful squares to watch daily life. We liked the apartment because it was homey and comfortable, plenty spacious for a longer relaxed stay, very light inside (Windows in every room) , only one flight of stairs to climb, on a quiet street, well equipped with everything we could need. The bedroom was large with room to unpack everything and feel at home. Andrea was so friendly and helpful right from the beginning of our correspondence . He met us at Piazzale Roma and walked us to the apartment and carried my bags. He made sure we had all the information we needed and left us with Prosecco and breakfast supplies. We had no problems during the week but he checked in with us to be sure. I left a little bag behind and he was very willing to get it back to me, but it was nothing important and not necessary. Thank you Andrea so much for all your hospitality!
