Maurizio and Francesca are outstanding hosts. They provided me a feel like home experience in the dream destination of Venice. I appreciate the extremely warm hospitality of Francesca who picked me up in person to guide me through the allies and gave me a welcome tour in their thoughtfully prepared apartment. She took the time and patience to give me all the tips on what to explore in Venice, what is the best way to get around based on my need and how to become a Venetian. I could tell she is committed being a host out of passion to make travelers feel like visiting a good friend. I received wine and sweets upon arrival as guest present. Beside the sympathy on the personal level the stay was on high standard. Great location, nice homely interior with love in details, spacious, fully equipped and superb bedding for a restful sleep. As Francesca and Maurizio are extensive experienced hosts the communication was easy, efficient and all I could ask for. I was a single traveler but this apartment can easily accommodate a family of 3. They have also other listings in prime locations which will be my choice on my return if I travel with a bigger group. Overall highly recommended. Encounters like this makes me prefer Air BnB over hotels as it become a memorable experience.
