This was our first AirBnB stay. We selected this particular host based on the reviews and pictures of guests as well as the location. We really enjoyed our stay at the Venice cottage. The interiors were nicely decorated, the place was clean, there were plenty of towels and the host was always available to answer any question we may have. Even though we did not rent the unit with the deck facing the canal, we enjoyed morning coffees by the small deck on the canal, something about Venice canals, the ducks passing by, people jogging or walking their dogs. Many thanks for the wonderful experience!
