Dario's place is conveniently located in the Mestre neighborhood, just 2 stops by train outside of Venice. The neighborhood itself is clean and the apartment is very close to a number of convenience stores, restaurants, and most importantly the train / bus station. Dario himself was welcoming and kind, his English isn't very strong but we were able to communicate through Google translate. The room and apartment are very clean and the washroom is updated which was a great bonus. Dario also allowed us to stow some of our drinks in his fridge overnight. The only complaint I had was that the walls were very thin - I was awoken in the middle of the night by the neighbors crying baby, which was no fault of Dario's.
Overall, it was a great, comfortable stay! I would recommend if you are looking for an affordable place to stay and do not mind sharing a space then to book with Dario. I would just suggest to bring yourself a pair of ear plugs.
