Alessandra was helpful and available, although it was hard to reach her at first. Finding the apartment was difficult if you don't know the area, and contact by phone wasn't possible without some adjustments to international dialing format.

She was very helpful with directions and tips on the local area. She was also very friendly.

Concerning Alessandra's review, I confirmed with Alessandra's mother that it would be okay to check out a little later, and everything seemed fine. The initial communication problems were certainly understandable as the way to find the place was not very clear from the directions.

Parking actually was difficult and it wasn't easy to find something, especially if you don't know the parking rules of the area. I think maybe this could be clearer for international travelers or anyone from out of town who are not familiar with local laws or the area.

I respected all rules of the house, was very clean, and left everything very orderly. I am sure I didn't cause any problems and in fact made sure I cleaned up everything after myself, disposed trash in the correct bins, and so on.

The neighborhood and building are a bit older, no air conditioning, laundry was not available as the machine was broken, and the neighborhood is not in any busy district, but I think it was fine and for the hardy traveler not a bad place to stay. Bus to Venice took about 10 minutes and was easy to get from outside the building.

The bathroom and room itself were extremely clean and well prepared, though the bed was a bit small (but reasonable for the size of the room).

Thank you Alessandra, I wish you well.
