We had a wonderful time in Venice, and it started when Frederico met us near the apartment to tell us all about Venice. He was very friendly and took the time to tell us about all the best restaurants, cicchetti spots and museums in Venice. We went to most of these and they were beyond our expectations! The apartment's location was perfect -- it was in a quiet area so sitting on the balcony we could relax and enjoy the surrounding Venetian decor. That said, we were walking distance to everything we wanted to visit.
