Alle was friendly and welcoming....she provided us a guide book to use and lots of hints about how to get around Venice. It took us some mucking around to get to her place but a map will fix that. The bus takes only a few minutes to get into town, runs frequently and is cheap to use especially with the all day or two day passes. The room was spotlessly clean as was the bathroom. Breakfast was simple, ready and sufficient. I would recommend a stay with Alle.
