We were welcomed very warmly by John even though our flight was delayed and we arrived quite late. He and Felicia had even done a little grocery shopping so that we had the makings of a continental breakfast the next morning! So thoughtful. The apt was exactly as pictured and described, no surprises other than how spacious it was! We had everything we needed and then some for a wonderful stay. The neighborhood was nice and quiet, felt very safe. We were conveniently located to walk to everywhere, whether it was shopping, eating, touring the canals or a nice walk to the beach! Definitely coming back for another stay and highly recommend this beautiful oasis of John's and Felicia's for anyone coming to Venice!
