The communication with the host was smooth, quick and friendly, and although the flat is located right next to the water-bus station, it's completely out of the overly-turist areas, giving you the chance to experience Venice in a an authentic, realistic way. It is one of the most stylish, cleverly designed apartments I've stayed in, ever. Although the flat offers everything one needs, the proportion between the carefully selected elements (furniture, objects) and huge, open spaces with lots of light gives you the feeling of luxury, tasteful minimalism and pure class. Perferct!
