We were welcomed by Claudio's daughter, Irene. She was extremely helpful and thoughtful. She spent a lot of time showing us around the apartment and also explaining the bus system in the neighbourhood and guided us on the attractions to visit on Venice and how to get there. She was very sweet in having our bus tickets ready for us for our first day and also told us how to use it. The house was perfect and spacious for 4 people. The kitchen was well equipped and the well maintained. The neighbourhood was safe and convenient. We had a lovely time at Venice.
