We loved this apartment! My husband, 3-year old son and I stayed here in February during Carnival, and it was the perfect home base. The location is wonderful, right off a lively square and an easy walk to Academia Bridge, San Marco and Rialto.

One thing we were surprised at was how close it was to the bus and train stations. We wouldn't have considered that important, or even a plus, but it made it so easy to catch the #1 "Grand Canal Tour" vaporrato from the bus station, as well as the express boat to Murano, and then the cheap & fast express bus to the airport, that I can't imagine having been in a different place.

The apartment was perfect -- much bigger and more spacious than the photos make it appear, and it feels like it was remodeled very recently, with everything in great condition. (I liked the kitchen so much I took some photos of the cabinet arrangement for inspiration on my own remodel.)

Working with Luciano was great. He sent detailed, step-by-step instructions to find the apartment which included photos of every turn, and we were met by his representative in the square to escort us in. We had a few questions for Luciano while we were there, and he answered almost immediately.

In the apartment to welcome us was a refrigerator stocked with eggs, milk, juice and jelly, plus a pantry full of bread, cookies, cereal and prosecco. We didn't dip into all of them, but it made transitioning into our temporary home incredibly easy, particularly with a hungry 3-year old!

Finally, the apartment was warm (a concern of mine after being out in February rain) and a comfortable place to relax after the bustle of sight seeing. We loved having a washing machine for a mid-trip reboot, and it's well stocked with toiletries, plastic wrap and tinfoil, laundry soap, extra towels, and everything in between.

We would absolutely stay here again.
