Gianni is a super nice guy and his friends or family members they all nice too! On the first day, he and his friends gave us a very friendly welcome greeting and explain everything to us patiently! We didn't feel even a little bit shy or awkward even we didn't know them at all.As for the location, even though it is not in the central of Venice but is very close, just 10-20 minutes bus ride and bus stop is right in front of the house. Equipment and essentials are definitely enough for short stay. Private bathroom, AC,and share a small kitchen with other roommates :) I strongly recommend this place to who want to find a place to stay when visit Venice!
