Alessandro was an excellent host and Venice does not disappoint. The location is easy to get to the train station as well as all the attractions and near good coffee in the morning. The air conditioning was out one night so we had to leave the windows open...bad idea! Between the partiers at a restaurant downstairs (until 3am!) and the mosquitos, we didn't get much sleep. Alessandro was on it, though, and did his best to make it right. I gave it 4/5 stars because of the beds. It had been a few years since I've been to Europe, so I thought maybe that's the way the beds are going to be but our other airbnbs later in the trip had lovely, comfy beds. These were very hard (for us)....nothing that a foam topper couldn't cure. If I could give it 4.5 I would since the beds were the only issue. Overall, I do recommend this place and we are thankful for Alessandros hospitality.
