Alessandra is an excellent host. She lives outside of Venice which is a 10 minute bus ride. The stop is about 50 yards from her apartment. She lives in a nice neighborhood with restaurants and shops nearby. Her apartment is very clean and tidy. It is also very colorful and fun but still warm and inviting. The room is large with a comfortable bed. The bathroom is located next to the room and is well maintained. Alessandra provides a notebook full of information of things to do in the area as well as bus schedules. In the mornings, she provides a nice breakfast to help you get your day started. We would stay with her again.
