We loved staying at Giorgia and Michele's flat. The location is perfect - close to everything but far enough away from the touristy hot-spots that we could avoid the crowds when we wanted to. Michele was uber patient and helpful in answering our millions of questions - closests ATMs, good restaurants, useful Italian phrases, how to use our phone card. We were super annoying and locked the key in the flat the first day, but Giorgia and Michele were unbelievably awesome about the whole ordeal. Most of all, the flat was beautiful, comfortable, and convenient as our Venice home-base. Definitely recommended.
