Claudia communicated sparingly and we never met. We arrived at Venice and waited for Tony (her husband) near the train station to walk us to the house. Tony was nice and gave us tips on how to visit the city. The house is decorated minimally, the tv is tiny and could not watch anything on it, which was a bummer, specially because we were following the World Cup. One plus was that the house was very clean. The house has three rooms, which was great for our party of four, but only one and a half bathrooms, in a weird layout. There is only one air conditioner in the living room, not in the bedrooms. The house is in an excellent location, close to a vaporetto stop and the train station (specially if you are hauling your luggage) and far from the tourists mobs. Overall I recommend the house, it’s good value and has an excellent location.
