This was my first time ever using Air B&B, and I have to say that Daniele, Anna and Valeria made it such a wonderful experience! Prior to my arrival, Anna and I had been in touch to confirm arrival times, meet up spots, etc. I ended up meeting her husband Daniele right on the Rialto Bridge, and he guided me to the space. Along the way he pointed out some helpful tips on navigation, places to eat, shop, etc. He seemed pretty knowledgeable and was eager to share anything that would enhance my stay...

The space itself is a cool combination of old world and modernity. It's tucked away in a small alleyway, but once you get inside it's actually quite large (larger than I expected). I was a solo traveler, so I didn't make use of multiple bedrooms, but I would imagine sleeping 2-3 would be easy in the space...

The neighborhood is pretty quiet too - I hardly heard a peep when I slept. Yet it is very central - like a 5 minute walk from the Rialto Bridge, and there are multiple ways to get there (I learned after trying out a few routes on my own - Venice has so many nooks and crannies!)...

The apartment is stocked full of things to make you feel at home - everything from cereal, milk, jam, biscuits, silverware/plates/glasses... Basically you move into their home! It's so convenient, clean, and modern...

My short stay in Venice begs me to return again in the future (still so much I want to see in that city). Daniele and family were such warm hosts, they are near the top of my list! Thank you guys - Ciao!!
