Elisabetta was a wonderful host! We got a bit lost on arrival, taking the wrong Vaporetto. Elisabetta was very patient and helped us figure out what to take to correct our mistake. She awaited us at the new stop with a smile. She even gave us a delicious bottle of cuvée upon arrival.

The apartment is exactly as pictured. It's gorgeous and a wonderful location - very central! You can see the canal from both bedrooms, the living room, and the kitchen. The smaller bedroom even has a teeny tiny balcony, big enough for one person to stand outside and look out. It was delightful listening to the gondoliers singing as they passed below. Unfortunately, we didn't get as much of that as we'd have liked (it was raining half the time), but we did get to hear some. And Elisabetta had extra umbrellas for us, which came in handy. The ottoman in the living room has a foldout cot inside it, which came in handy, as well. The hot water took a bit to warm up, but wasn't bad.

I would love to stay here again someday! Thanks for everything, Elisabetta!
