My friends and I were doing a short stay in Venice before catching the overnight train to Vienna, and decided to stay by the train station to save money and time.

Cristina was very responsive and helpful. Her mother, Pia, met us and showed us around the apartment. She didn't speak any English, but she definitely knows how to make herself understood! She was very helpful in getting us settled. We went into Venice proper for the afternoon on the train which was an easy trip, and even after a long wander and a full dinner we made it back before the last train.

Cristina and Pia assured us that we could keep our luggage in their storage while we wandered the streets of Venice all day the next day, which we did. There was a slight issue with the hot water in the morning, but we didn't find it a big problem and managed to finish our showers before Pia came over to look at the issue.

Overall, Cristina was very accomodating and the space was comfortable. The immediate neighborhood has a nice restaurant by the train, as well as some other local haunts that looked interesting but we didn't explore very much since we spent most of our time in central Venice.

Thanks again for everything Cristina and Pia!
