My husband and I stayed at Alex's place in Venice this week and it couldn't have been more perfect. I shopped for some food at the Erewhon Market which was only a few blocks away. The apartment comes with everything you need to cook- solid cookware, sharp knives. But if you're not in the mood to cook, there are a ton of restaurant options near the apartment. We ate our breakfast each morning at the Gjelina takeout counter which is only two or three blocks from the apartment.
The apartment itself is lovely- super clean, modern, the water feature outside is great and we'd leave the windows open so that we could hear it when we were indoors. I only wish that it had been a little bit warmer so that we could have brought the seat cushions outside and enjoyed the big bench/dining table area.
Overall we had a terrific visit and we will definitely be back. Thanks Alex!
