Elide's place was just as beautiful as it looked in the photos. She met us upon arrival and helped carry our bags to our room. She suggested a local pizzeria for dinner and gave us lots of tips about places to see and things to do, including transportation. We inquired about laundry, but that service is no longer available to guests. Instead she directed us to a laundromat near the water taxi station. There was a great spread for breakfast every morning and we really enjoyed the air conditioning! It was a very peaceful place to stay. We would definitely return if we decide to visit Venice again!
