This was an excellent AirBNB stay. Elena kindly met us at the bridge near the railway station and helped us to find our way through the maze of Venice streets, telling us lots about Venice as we walked. The flat was immaculately clean and well furnished and well-equipped. There were guidebooks and novels on the bookshelves. The location is great -- it's near the university and away from the mass of tourists, but only a 20 minute walk or so to Central Venice. Walking around at night felt safe. There's a grocery store on the Zaterre around 10 minutes walk away; you can get water-buses there as well which will take you into the centre or out into the lagoon. We hope to return to Venice next year and would certainly hope to stay again at Elena's place.
