Elena's apartment is fantastic. It is situated in a very quiet area of the city, far removed from the masses of tourists. It was always a relief to head back after a long day of weaving through crowds and have a nice quiet place to relax. Elena was very accommodating despite our travel schedule running a bit late and had Sebastiano meet us, show us around, and provide various recommendations. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to see a side of Venice outside the standard tourist traps.
