Ermanno was a fantastic host! He was very responsive to any questions we had and gave us some good advice about enjoying Venice. The apartment was very quaint and very clean. The location was wonderful - close to the train station and not too far of a walk to major sites. Great AC and heating unit made our stay very comfortable and allowed us to dry some clothes that got wet in the rain. As other reviewers have noted, the only potential down sides for us were the size of the bathroom (the whole thing gets wet when you take a shower) or the couch bed was sometimes not the most comfortable for us. Even so, we had a wonderful stay!
