Information in advance was helpful und the discription of the way perfect- may be the name of the bar where one can meet, would be helpful too. In reality- at my arrival - i could not reach Claudio. I had texted him to the number I had got- the risponse came first when I had wifi in the appartement... - and as he was a little late I tried to phone him... he later told me, that his phone was "dead".--- anyway, not a big issue.- In the appartement I got the information I needed and some local hints. The room and the bathroom are clean (as you can do it in a older house)- and I was thankful that I could use the kitchen. the frige well organised but very old...- I had a nice couple from australia living in the dooble room. they realy tried to be quiet- but it was not easy. The doors are squeaking and the walls are not thik. Also I could hear the noise from the stairway- But there is absolutly no noise from the street or from the canals - Save and pleasant quarter (neighbourhood). The wifi usually needed patience in the evening but was than running fine. Perfect accommodation for 3 people-
Perfect distance to trainstation, but visiting the Biennale you have to be aware of the distance.
