Mario was very friendly and picked us up from the vaporetto-stop. He showed us around the area a little and explained where we could find supermarkets, etc. The apartment in itself was very spacious and comfortable and exactly as depicted, if not even nicer. We were all quite astonished and positively surprised to have such as nice, and honestly affordable, place in the middle of Venice. The location is absolutely perfect, you couldn't be more central. Overall, the style and feeling was very venetian (marble-floor etc.) and we could not have been happier.
