Giovanni’s apartment proved very well fitting all needs a traveler (in particular a family) can feel. At our arrival, the apartment was spotless clean, the kitchen well-equipped, the rooms large and comfortable, the heating perfectly working, and the Wi-Fi efficient. Furthermore, the presence of two bathrooms turned out to be very practical. Giovanni came to the boat stop to lead us to the house and gave us exhaustive explanations on the neighborhood, including restaurants, shops, and so on. A detailed book with further information is available to guests together with a map and some guides (most of which in English).
The location is perfect: after a pleasant ten-minute walk one gets to S. Marco square, crossing uncountable pictoresque and non-touristic corners of the “Sestiere Castello”. If you wish to experience the magic of Venice without being overwhelmed by the crowd, Giovanni’s apartment is what you need.
