francesca waited for our arrival as it was somewhat delayed as we had to wade through near waist high water due to the high tide flooding, there was a problem with the door sticking it was very tight and difficult to open however i think there had been some water ingress as venice was badley flooded while we were there, there was no outdoor lighting working while we were there the lights were there but they did not work so a good torch is needed [luckily we took one with us] we were charged 29 euros tourist tax for two people for four nights, which seems an odd figure and checking back on my emails it should have been 24 euros, however our stay at francescas was very good we loved the area [ despite the floods] and will probably go back to venice in non flood season as it is a beautyful place with every thing you need for a city break, francesca was quick to react to any emails sent and all in all was a very good host
