Marcello was great meeting us and waited for us as we were delayed. He provided all the info we needed and a lovely welcoming bottle of wine. Marcello gave us the best advice to just relax and get lost in the streets of Venice and that is what we did especially as it was very hot and crowded and we were happy to avoid the crowds. The apartment us in a perfect location at San Stae - easy to use the vaporetto and well worth getting a pass. We loved Venice and will return when it is not the peak time to enjoy more of the culture. Thanks Marcello!
