The place is great! A bit dark but nice, spacious and very comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and a bit out of the beaten path, which I particularly love so one can disconnect from the crowds. It’s still super close to everything.
I wish we had had a better experience with the hosts. To me, the purpose of staying at an Airbnb is to be able to communicate with the hosts. As soon as I booked the place, I asked if we could drop off the luggage prior to our checking in as we were arriving to Venice at 9 am. They did not respond. I reached out a few days before the trip, nothing. I reached out again the day before, nothing. Even the day off, they didn’t respond until later in the morning.
No welcoming, no suggestions about anything. Simply put: it was a mere financial transaction, no warmth at all. I feel bad writing this because I love Italy and Italians are so charming and welcoming. This wasn’t the case.
The house, like I said, was a good fit!
