Elena's place was well located, lots of restaurants and shops around the area. It is a little difficult to find but you shouldn't have too many problems if you follow her directions. Google maps sometimes has difficulty navigating in Venice, maybe due to the small streets that look more like alleyways. The flat was beautifully decorated and sparkling clean. It's a great space for 2 people. When we were there in late December, Venice streets were flooded in the morning which means that if you plan on sightseeing, you'll need either rain boots or buy the plastic covers for your shoes that they sell all over Venice. Which was the cause of the only issue I had with this stay. Checkout is at 10am and I was worried that I would have to take my suitcase out on the street with a foot of water on it. I wanted to leave my luggage at the flat until the water receeded but was told in no uncertain terms that it was not possible with no other options provided. Keep that in mind if you're carrying a large suitcase. Except for the checkout experience, overall it was a stay.
