We loved staying at Natalies place in Venice. The location is superb - in a quiet street but close to the waterfront and also to all touristplaces. The place was as clean as it would have been had I cleaned it myself. This was very much appreciated. Also the nespresso machine was more than handy in the morning!
The check-inn was effortless and very friendly - even though I actually did forget to call and say we had landed the check in lady came at once and just smiled at it. Thx!
Please note that many ground floor appartments in Venice have slight problems with mosquitoes outside (that want to come in in the evening and at night). We heard about this from other tourists as well. Not a surprise with alle the water around! But a little repellent could come in handy.
