Marcello is a nice and friendly guy. He met us outside at the vaporetto station near his place, which was easy to find. Although check in time is 3pm, after he found out we will be arriving early that morning, he prepped the place for us immediately and we were able to check in at 12pm. Although there were some last min addition to the number of guests, he was still very accommodating. He also bought us some food and drinks for us just in case we need breakfast. He also gave us a bottle of white wine, but we didn't end up drinking it. The place is nice and it is everything we expected. It is extremely close to the veporetto station, which was very convenient for us especially with our luggage. The only complaint is the bugs that came in through out the day because the window was opened. But the second day after we closed it, it was better. Overall the place is great and would recommend anyone to stay there.
