Marco's place is amazing! I highly recommend staying here in Venice. First of all, he provided us with detailed instructions on which vaporetto to take from the train station, as well as photos and a well-drawn, easy to follow map to find his apartment. We found the place with zero wrong turns -- an amazing feat in confusing Venice! The check-in process was easy, and Marco had maps and travel guides available. The place was clean and well-appointed and looks exactly like the photos. The neighborhood is also nice and quiet, nearby to many coffee shops, a grocery store and little shops, away from the super touristy area but VERY close to Rialto, etc. We felt like we were tucked away in a quiet neighborhood away from the crowds, but were just steps from the heart of Venice.
