Alessandra’s place is beautiful and we loved the location. it is close to the water taxi and to the grand canal and it is only a short walk to many attractions. But You must take note that there is no air conditioning and there are no screens on the windows and there are many mosquitoes. The plug in device that we were given did not seem to phase the mosquitoes at all. they just feasted on us all night.So if you are sensitive to mosquito bites this is definitely not the place for you.
