Elena is a very responsible and helpful host. Although she wasn't in Venice during my trip, she provided very detailed and clear instructions on how to get to the apartment from the airport as Google Maps doesn't work quite well in the city. This is very useful for a first-timer like myself.
The apartment is much larger than it seems in the photos, but like the photos it was all cleaned and the essentials were all ready; the air-conditioner was already running when we arrived - a huge relief after a very hot day and a delayed flight!
The water bus station and St Mark's Square are just 5 and 10 minutes away and the way is not hard at all to find.
My family and I enjoyed our stay at Elena's apartment very much though we didn't stay in Venice very long. I will visit the city again and I surely will go for Elena's apartments.
