Giovanni was an incredible host, without a doubt the best I have encountered on Airbnb! We noticed he had "perfect" ratings when we were booking, and after working with him, there is no doubt why. Venice can be a little bit confusing, but he provided detailed information on how to reach the closest water bus stop to the apartment. He met us there and walked us to the apartment. He also had a notebook filled with recommendations and a map that showed where all the major attractions (and his restaurant recommendations) were in relation to the apartment. All of his recommendations that we had time to explore were spot on. Giovanni is the kind of guy you wish you were related to, so you could come back and visit again and again. He has lived in Venice all his life and loves sharing his city with his guests! The apartment itself was very spacious and welcoming and in a quiet neighborhood. We definitely recommend his hospitality to anyone visiting Venice.
