If you are going to Venice and are four or less people Marco's apartment is the best!!! He gave us detailed descriptions of what boats to take to get to there and kept in great communication the day of our arrival when our train was delayed. His girlfriend met us right as we got off a boat and walked us to the apartment, less then a 10 minute walk. The area that the apartment is in is the nicest in Venice in my opinion. There are so many great restaurants and gelato shops. The apartment is down an adorable little alley and it was super cute and clean. It had everything we needed (and air conditioning). The beds were comfortable and everything was just what we needed. Venice is gorgeous and we plan to return someday and would love to stay in Marco's apartment again.
