Everyone loves Arianna's place for a reason. She is truly a super host. Despite being on her own trip, her response time was incredibly quick. Her place was clean, well put together, and cared for by an assistant while she was gone. She seems to have a system or explanation for every request or process, whether that be check in or laundry. Unfortunately, we weren't able to meet her in person, but her hospitality shined through our stay. We were about 15 minutes past the check-in penalty time because our train was delayed but Arianna was incredibly generous to waive the fee. If you are arriving by train with luggage to carry, her home is very close to the metro which is super helpful. Her home is in a residential neighborhood, so it's pleasantly quiet, but about 2-3 minutes out of the way from the busy area of the Grand Canal. Finally, her home is close to the Guglie stop for vaporettos. We never got around to using Venice's transport system, but it may be super helpful to you. In summation, I highly recommend Arianna's place. You won't regret it!
