Sabina is a great host and was very helpful and quick to respond to all my texts. We took the Radio Taxi (€45) to the drop off point by the apartment. From there it is a short walk to the apartment. If you arrive a little early or want a less expensive option take the vaporetto to the S. Basilio station. The distance to the apartment by taxi or vaporetto is about the same.
The apartment was located in a quiet part of Venice, but the popular destinations are still within walking distance as Venice is not that big. The apartment was clean and the kitchen, living room and bedroom were nice. The only downside was the small bathroom. The sink is right in front of the toilet.
There is a nice grocery store (Conad Supermarket) and a vaporetto station (S. Basilio) very near the apartment.
