Francesca (& Maurizio) are fantastic hosts! The whole process was exceptionally easy and they provide a great welcome. The unit was spotless and in a great location for exploring the sights of Venice. There were also lots of little touches (like cold water on arrival, a bottle of local wine, detergent for the washing machine and shower gel in the bathrooms) to make the stay even more comfortable for travelers. We look forward to visiting again. Ciao Derek
