We had the best time ever at Mauricio's apartment. First of all, the apartment is beautiful, clean and modern. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious. We were so excited that there were two bathrooms allowing us each to have one. The apartment is very secure and feels safe.
We had a seamless experience with our check-in. Francesca, Mauricio's partner, met us moments after we arrived at the closet Vaporetto. She led us to the apartment and showed us everything we needed to know. This was very helpful.
The apartment was well stocked with basics including tea, coffee, sugar, oil, spices, laundry soap, etc which I always appreciate. We were also given a lovely welcome gift of Proseco, cookies and chocolate which was so thoughtful.
The location can't be beat. It is 5-10 minutes walk to St. Mark's Square, the Ospedale vaporetto stop, the Rialto Bridge, etc. The neighborhood is quiet and away from most of the tourist crowds. You will find many good restaurants and stores within a few minutes walk.
All I can say is that we loved the apartment so much, that we did not want to leave. It really began to feel like home.
Grazie mille!
