Silvia's mom was an excellent and inviting host. Do not trust google maps in Venice, however. It took us quite a while to locate the place, but the locals were quite helpful. We appreciated being in a quieter area for sleeping, but that did mean a bit more wandering through the maze of Venice. We rented the larger upstairs room with adjoining bathroom, and it was clean and as advertised. I would come back to stay here my next time in Venice.
