This was our first visit to Venice and our first experience with Airbnb. In both respects we were delighted with the result. Bjorn has transformed the small studio space with careful design and the sort of clean simplicity that appeals to us; modern and effective. The location is excellent; we spent the days exploring and walking out from the studio, either quickly onto main streets or to the nearby major water bus stop or simply getting lost in the wonders of backstreet Venice. Bjorn’s advice was clear and thorough and his tips on good places to eat or good views were so good that we ended up trying to follow all of them, with great success. In fact we had such fun that we spent most time out and generally came back to the studio for a shower and bed. The sofa bed has slightly noisy springs but - the important thing - the mattress is very comfortable, the location is quiet and we slept really well. This is the ideal place to stay for a short trip to a beautiful city and we came away sharing Bjorn’s enthusiasm for his home!
