This was our first Airbnb experience and it couldn't be faulted. Alessandro was away so his brother Alberto met us at the tram stop and did the check in. This included local information on transport and restaurants and also he provided us with maps and tram and bus timetables. The apartment was exactly as described (only better!) and was spotless. We had a fabulous stay and would absolutely recommend this lovely apartment. The Mestre area is great to stay in as its away from the hustle and bustle of Venice but so convenient and easy to get to and from and only 15 minutes from Venice with very regular trams. Very close to the apartment is a supermarket, cafe and several restaurants. Grazie Alessandro!
