Paola's place is little odd because in feels like a Granny's flat. There are strange padlocks and chains on the furniture - which are not a welcoming feature. There are also small ants in the kitchen and closest bedroom. Noisy pigeons kept us awake. Sadly there is only one key (we did request more) - which does not make it great for sharing - we had to plan carefully so we could arrive home at different times. Bus connections to the vaporetto are regular and quick. Communications with Lorenzo were good via whatsapp.
