Before staying at Lucia's my friend and I were traveling through a few different counties and mostly utilized AirBnb for our lodging. We lucked out with all good experiences, but we were somewhat disappointed by how...cookie cutter and commercial some of the stays were. We really enjoyed Lucia's flat because it had her personality all over it: the self portraits, the photographs, the houseplants, etc. It felt like we were staying with a friend, and Lucia really was a friend to us during our stay in Venice! She met us at the train station and showed us around and shared fruit and cocktails with us. She's also a fantastic photographer and often stopped us to take our photos in front of landmarks. If you stay here, just know that this is a very interactive check in process but you will not regret it, especially if you've never been to Venice! For breakfast we enjoyed the yogurt and nutalla and fruit. Thank you for such a unique, eclectic, educational stay, Lucia!
