My mother and I was very satisfied with Yaya's place. Firstly, the location could not be better. It is so close to the railway station and Piazzale Roma, and therefore its cheap and easy to get back and forth to the airport. Even so close to the center, it is a quite and pleasant apartment. We were happy about the apartment and Yaya was kind and an ideal host : )
Also the location is great because you are close to what we experienced at the calmer and more quite parts of Venice, but also close to the touristic streets.
