Elena's place was amazing, it's spotlessly clean, such a pleasant stay. It's very central in Venice and is in a very nice neighbourhood. S. Samuele & S.Angelo vaporetto stops are within 5 mins walk and from here you can get anywhere in Venice (get a day pass for the amount of days you're here, it's very convenient).
Elena very kindly met us of the vaporetto and waited for us even though we were 30 mins late because we couldn't figure out how to get tickets (tip: download the ACTV app, it makes it easier).
The amenities in the apartment were very good and we made use of all of them, grill, hob, fridge, washer, dryer, iron, hairdryer all worked fine and the shower is very good. Some things are a bit high up, Elena provides stepladders for these. The decor is nice and the bed is very comfortable.
It can sometimes be loud on the morning with kids going to school (I slept through it but it woke my husband) but apart from that an amazing place and would definitely stay here again.
Elena's apartment is on a quiet little square and there are some nice bars and restaurants just around the corner and up the street, providing nice food and a chilled out atmosphere after you've spent the day exploring the city.
Would recommend and would stay here again.
