Scilla wan't available at the time however her lovely parents, Lucia and Luciano was there to welcome my family and I at the ferry stop. Although they spoke little English, communication was not a problem at all and check in was a breeze.
Walking to the apartment from the ferry stop takes a little under 10 mins by feet and the route to the apartment didn't require crossing any bridges (FYI for those with luggages).
The apartment is well decorated in Venetian style. It is cosy, very clean and spacious, well enough to comfortably accommodate the 7 of us. Well equipped with wifi, kitchen, washing machine, pots/pans and towels etc. The house guidebook also provided clear instructions on how to utilise the appliances (washing machine etc.), wifi and included garbage rules in Venice. Scilla also provided other booklets of Venice which were very informative and interesting.
Waking around the complex alleys may be daunting but having GPS with you to map your location is almost always mandatory to avoid getting lost. Supermarket can be found nearby, walking distance of about 15 minutes. Just remember to take along with you the shopping carrier conveniently provided at the apartment, as not all supermarkets provide bags for your purchased items.
During the summer, it may be a little warm and the presence of mosquitoes were felt - however, it is common outdoors as well which we suspect vary on different seasons and weather conditions. Keeping windows closed and getting some Insect repellent may be helpful for the summer.
All in all, Scilla is definitely a Superhost!
She was very responsive to my queries and attentive to my concerns during my stay (when using the washing machine) which was very reassuring. Even when she was not around to tend to me personally, the issues I had was promptly and easily resolved.
Thanks for having us!
