Micaela was very patient with us in the initial meeting - as we had some phone and internet problems...our fault, not Micaela's - and she was no longer able to meet us in person but she sent her mother in law to find us instead. Micaela came soon after and explained to us a little about Venice which was really helpful. She recommended Baco Felice (a pizza restaurant) nearby which was great, and told us how to find the nearby supermarket, catch vaporettas etc.

The kitchen is really well-equipped, so we also found it easy to cook for ourselves. The location is convenient to the train station and other areas of interest.

We had trouble connecting to the internet and Micaela tried to fix the issue repeatedly over the next few days. I'm not sure if other people have had trouble with this or perhaps it was just us?

Micaela was really good at communicating with us before, during and after our visit. She was really friendly. She even baked us home made chocolate slice for our arrival which we thought was a really friendly and welcoming gesture.

The weather was very wet during our visit so we didn't get to use the garden as much as we'd hoped. It looked like such a great green and leafy retreat from the crowded Venice streets.
