Francesca's airbnb is the way it should be : i.e you are staying in her home and not an anodyne bought-to-let apartment. It is situated on the Giudecca which is the strip of land facing the Zattere - the Giudecca has its own character and adherents. All the basic food shops you need and some goodish restaurants plus the outlandishly expensive Harry's Dolce and of course the Cipriani. In the evening you can sit at a bar looking at Venice - a backdrop that can only set any troubled mind at peace. Francesca is warm and welcoming; there are two rooms and a shared bathroom which is immaculately clean. There is a little facility for tea making but you couldn't cook for yourself. There are three fine cats.
The elder has a very deep miaow - I think she might have been an opera singer but she has lost her voice. The garden is a little hap-hazard but pretty. Alas there are mosquitoes in Venice - but they are not site-specific. We were perfectly happy there and I will recommend it to my friends who need a room for a night or two. As I said its is a true airbnb. Combining good clean rooms with the atmosphere of warm lights, warm smells in a well-lived in home which eschews minimalism.
