It was my first time visiting Italy and Europe and my first stop was to Venice. Upon arrival, my mum and I were just exhausted from the 20 hours flight we had and we were totally lost in this foreign maze-hole of a whole new different language.

Thank goodness for Paolo who was patient enough and waited for us at the home the whole time. He even gave us a call to pick us up when we were lost as I carelessly forgotten to print the map as well as helping my mum with her luggage. Two thumbs up!!

Upon reaching the stay, we were greeted with clearly written guides /manuals to find our way around Venice alongside with recommendation by Paolo. Supermarkets, bakery, pharmacy, its all written inside. (Be sure to try out the small café just a cornerstone away from the house which serves amazing Carborana!) Also, Paolo also gives great advice for transport and how we should take the Vaporetto of Venice and he would be more then happy to answer your questions.

The house was also heart-warming exactly like how you see them in the picture, with towels and shower gels provided throughout. With a useable kitchen, you could cook up an amazing breakfast just to save some cash. The balcony was also big enough to dry your laundry for the day should you decide to wash them.

All in all, it was one of my better Airbnb experiences and a good alternative to choose from given the extravagant prices of Venice. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AND WILL DEFINETELY COME BACK AGAIN! :)
