Alberto was a wonderful host, extremely responsive and always helpful. The flat is small and simple but very functional, clean, it has a lot of light for Venice standards, and it is overall ideal for someone like me who was in the city for a work experience and research. The supermarket is close, and although Rialto is a pretty touristy area, the quieter parts are 2 minutes away and anything you might want to visit is a 15 minute walk away max. Only problem was that there is not much phone reception or internet in the building. Venice is great fun and beauty.
I 100% reccomend it!!
