My friend and I loved to stay at Alessandra's place! It is in a local area of Venice where you will find a few amazing bars for young people nearby (one named "Timon"). Additionally Alessandra's son, Massimo, was amazingly accommodating when it came to check in. My friend got lost on her way in and he went out to find her at the train station!! Thank you so much Alessandra and Massimo for letting us stay in your home! (As an FYI: maybe don't bring a bunch of luggage because it is a couple flights up the stairs)
