The host is more than gracious and the apartment is extremely clean and in close proximity to the train/bus stations to get into Venice. There is free parking off premises but the host gladly drives you over and back to the apartment after dropping off the luggage. He have a great amount of local knowledge on how to best get to Venice and allowed us to use the free parking after checking out while we were on a Venice walking tour. He even let us borrow his umbrella because it was raining the day we checked out. Extremely good host and apartment. I highly recommend this location and host if you are stopping by Venice!
