Charming and reactive host who stopped by in person to greet us; clear and prompt communication on obtaining the key on arrival. The apartment is situated in a calm and quite picturesque back-street near the public gardens and the port, a 20-minute walk to San Marco. The apartment is on ground floor is small but uncluttered with bright spaces and a very lovely little courtyard to take morning coffee in. The bed creaks - a lot! - and the hot water is a little slow but we very much enjoyed out stay for Carnevale and would reserve again. Grazie!
