What a treat to stay at this apartment. First, Erika is a dear person! She was a big help to us during our time in Venice. I had foolishly left my purse containing my medications at a boat rental business in Lake Como where we were staying prior to getting on the train to Venice. I texted Erika and she handled the whole business of having the purse shipped to us. She even delivered it to us personally. She went completely out of her way to assist us and I'm personally so grateful to her. She provided clear instructions on how to navigate to where she would meet us to walk us to the apartment. All the winding little streets look similar and, initially, we would not have ever been able to find the apartment's location without her taking us there personally. She was very thorough with the check in and with all of her explanations. We enjoyed her restaurant recommendations, as well as a few sight seeing experiences she encouraged us to see. We loved the apartment and were very comfortable there. Lovely. It was clean and spacious and had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable and so was the temperature. We walked to so many places and enjoyed the scenic atmosphere. We only wish we could have stayed longer! The only suggestions we have would be that the owner would have some mosquito repellent on hand there in the apartment for guests, and to supply more towels for those staying more than two days. We would love to come back and stay again in the future!
