Luca's Mom was very helpful showing us where to get groceries (coop) & where to eat in Via Garibaldi. She keeps the apt spotlessly clean & sheets pressed. The air conditioner is actually cold unlike some Italian hotels in the summer heat. The apt is a cool respite after sweaty walks around hot Venice. The sofa bed, bed and pillows are all comfortable. It's like living in a suite of a great hotel. The location is excellent too: close to San Marco but quiet & away from the throngs of tourists. It's highly recommended.
