Maria saved us from being homeless on our first day in Italy. The first airbnb property I booked months ago had to cancel because of bedbugs. I was only informed by the hostess less than 24 hours before my family and I flew to Venice.
But it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Maria's property was very nice and spacious. It is also in a great location. I can't thank her enough for her hospitality and for hosting us with such a very short notice.
