Elena's hospitality was exceptional! From directions, to booking a water taxi, to making local recommendations and reservations at local restaurants, and even letting us borrow a hot water bottle when a family member was experiencing an aching back! It was great to have a grocery store so close to allow our family to have an authentic, homemade Italian meal at home. The location to the train station was a bonus since we were pulling heavy bags. Thank you, Elena, for a terrific Venetian experience! Ciao
