We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Elena's place. The apartment was aesthetically pleasing, with wonderful artworks on the wall, and the whole space was surprisingly roomy for Venice! The kitchen was well equipped with good quality saucepans and crockery. Everything you need is there, including Wellington boots in case of the Aqua Alba! There are plenty of books to read, both Italian and English titles. It was like being at home in Venice.
Elena and Shirley were great communicators and we felt very cared for.
