Clean, neat and tidy. However, Venice is such a place that you need to be very accurate. Small streets may mis-lead you anytime. Further, not always the instructions given by agency to reach the accommodation are correct. You need to take help from local shop-keepers. There is huge difference between outside streets (clumsy, narrow), however, in the given area Chiara has made her house very well. The house is normally stocked with required stuff like tea, coffee, salt, etc. However, we had to buy oil as this was not available.
If you have booked a Gondola ride, pls take proper instructions from agency and keep their phone number handy ---- they give you vouchers but don't know whom to contact. There is lot of confusion for Gondola ride.
A useful tip to travellers :- always plan to do Venice or Rome prior to Switzerland, London, Germany (if that's your plan). Because after coming from very well organised and discipline tourist destinations like Switzerland, UK, Germany ----- Venice or Rome is not too good on management and directions. The language and the crowd adds to these issues.
