This is the BEST place to stay in Venice. The host was the best of our entire trip. They gave four days worth of activities to do while we were there and even told us about their favorite restaurants, where to find the cheapest and best gondola rides, and a map of the city to find our way around. The host was there to check us in the moment that we arrived and explained to us how everything worked in the room and in Venice in general. The shower was the best I have ever taken in my life and the room was extremely clean. For real, if you have the chance to stay here: do it!
