Marco is a fantastic guy and his apartment is perfect. He met us off the vaporetto, walked us to the apartment, gave us lots of useful information, hints and tips for our stay in Venice. He even took the time to walk us to the nearest supermarket so that we could get familiar with the area, giving us a mini guided tour on the way. Dorsoduro is a great place to stay with a very "local" feel to it. The nearby Campo Santa Margherita really comes to life later in the day and is a very pleasant place for a drink in the cool of the evening.
