My boyfriend and I were warmly welcomed at the ferry station and escorted us all the way back to the apartment. This kind of hospitality went above and beyond what I expected. I think extra effort was the start of a wonderful stay at Raffaella's home. The description and pictures were well matched to the listing on this site. The location and ease of access to the city made our stay so much more enjoyable than staying a hotel. Overall the place was spacious, clean, and comfortable. We would definitely stay there again next time we are in Venice.
