Marino is a wonderful host. He met us as the motorboat and walked us to the apartment, while sharing his local knowledge with us about the history of Venice. When we arrived at the apartment he showed us around and explained everything to us (all with his great sense of humor). He also provided us with some food and drinks and all the facilities we would need. The apartment is beautifully clean and very spacious. It is just as described and in a great location. We had a fabulous time at Marino's apartment and would definitely stay here again! Thank you so much, Marino!
