Make sure to keep the host informed about check-in times as she is pretty strict. Her website indicated two different check-in times - one allowed until 8 PM and the other until 11 PM. The 11 PM limit was on the front page of her website, and the only one I noticed prior to checking in (why would I dig further for the same information somewhere else?). Unfortunately, the host did not realize the 11 PM check-in was posted and refused to meet us at 8:15 PM, when we arrived. She sent someone else to let us into the apartment, which resulted in another 30 minute delay. All in all, not a terrible experience, but not the way a traveler wants to arrive into the beautiful city of Venice for vacation.
