Federico's place was in a great location, a beautiful quiet area of Venice. It was only a 5 minute walk from the water bus station where his friend Valeria met us. She was very helpful and nice. The place was what we needed for a short stay. The only complaint we had was the uncomfortable bed, that barely fit two people. We ended up having two of us on the couch and one in the bed the second night. Totally doable short term, but not the most comfortable for a more extended stay. Overall, would recommend!
