We loved Matteo's apartment! Exactly as is looked in the photos, Matteo's place is clean and comfortable. It is quiet and peaceful, sitting right above a small water canal, and yet only minutes away from the Rialto Bridge and the heart of Venice! Although Matteo was not able to meet up with us, that did not stop him from being incredibly welcoming and hospitable. Having a friend meet us at the Vaporetto (boat) stop and walk is straight to the apartment, leaving us loads of information for getting around Venice, and even leaving my wife and I with a bottle of wine and local treats for our honeymoon, Matteo went above and beyond to make us feel right at home. An amazing home and an amazing host! If we ever return to Venice, this is where we would hope to stay!
