This was my first experience with Airbnb. I was amazed when I walked into the apartment and could not believe that I would call this apartment my own for two days. My husband felt the same way. The host was so generous and helpful. They provided me with a detailed plan of how to get to the apartment from the central train station without me asking (which now from experience with other airbnbs is a big deal). We have stayed in two more since our time in Venice and they do not even compare. The apartment was very clean, was obviously recently renovated, and was outside of the touristy part of Venice. It was very quiet at night and close to great restaurants. We also felt very safe in the neighborhood. I would recommend this apartment/ host to anyone traveling to Venice.
