Rossella's place was one of my FAVORITE Airbnb locations ever - and my friends and I travel using Airbnb quite often! Rossella met us at the vaporetti stop Fondamente Nove, which was a direct ride over from the train station, and walked us over to her apartment. The apartment is very close to the vaporetti station, which has direct trips out to Murano, Burano, Lido, etc., and is walking distance to St. Mark's and city center. The location could not have been better! It was so beautiful on the water at night, and the apartment was quiet but close to everything we could want. Rossella is adorable and despite only speaking in Italian, we could tell how much she loved what she was doing and how welcoming she was of us. She used Google translate and various forms to help the check-in process, which was very smooth. We speak no Italian and we were originally a little worried because her messages to us in Airbnb were always in Italian, but it was no problem at all! What a great experience.
Rossella's place itself was marvelous. She left us a tray of fruit (I LOVE fruit and was so excited!), a melon and juice in the fridge, wine, many breakfast foods, chocolate, and more. She gifted me with a Murano glass necklace. We were on our honeymoon, and she put out adorable "love" pillows on the bed and put in a love songs CD. The decor is so cute and we had a very comfortable stay!
