Elena was a great host - she met us near the station when we arrived, and was very generous with her time in answering all our questions about Venice. The flat is well-designed and very clean. It is not particularly bright, but has its own front door onto the street which is a bonus. The location is great for seeing Venice (with or without a travel card for the vaporetto). Elena had left some basic groceries which was a really thoughtful touch. Definitely recommended for a stay in Venice.
