Elena's place is wonderful! Situated in one of Venice's quietest neighborhoods, a welcome respite in this vibrant city. The apartment was meticulously clean, quiet and comfortable. Elena's husband, Juri, met us at the train station and gave us a brief tour of the neighborhood and the apartment. Then, he spread out the city map on the kitchen table and gave us much-appreciated tips on where to eat, where to visit, and transportation options. They helped us with peculiar details, such as with our return transportation the airport. Overall, they were extraordinarily helpful and gracious hosts!
