Silvana was a terrific host. She met us at the nearby vaporetto stop and even gave us a short walking tour to point out useful locations in the area. The apartment is in a very handy location with shopping and dining just a few steps away. It is maybe two minutes to the vaporetto stop. It is well furnished with everything you could need and even included bottled water, some snacks, fruit, soft drinks and beer. The bed is very firm.
