Alessandro was such a friendly and warm personality, I couldn't help but feel at ease and enjoy his company immediately.

After some early confusion around my arrival time and my room not being ready because the previous guest had arranged to stay later, I was still able to leave my bag behind and use the bathroom to prepare for my day out in Venice.

Alessandro provided me with a map that he marked up with some recommended points of interest. He made sure I had a coffee at the shop right around the corner, which was probably the best coffee I had during my entire time in Italy. He also made me a reservation at a truly Venetian restaurant, which ended up being the highlight of my short stay in Venice. Oh, and I can't forget about the expansive, delicious breakfast Alessandro put together the morning of my departure!

The apartment itself was as described/pictured. It was very clean, organized. The Superior room is huge and the bed is really comfortable.

I felt very fortunate to have found my way to this particular flat/location. It was quiet and yet only a few minutes walk from the train station, as well as a couple of steps from a bustling main street with numerous shops, markets, etc.

I would stay here again in a heartbeat!
