Cristina's apartment was lovely, immaculately clean and spacious and was in a great location between the bus/train stations and the main attractions such as St Mark's Square. Our room was clean and comfortable and was generally well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Cristina was a very welcoming host and gave us lots of helpful information about Venice, and even booked a local restaurant for us on our first night. The only downsides were that there could sometimes be a bit of a wait to use the shared bathroom and that, possibly because of the age of the building, there is no elevator and so be prepared to have to hand carry any luggage up a few flights of stairs to the top floor where Cristina's apartment is located. However, these were only very minor inconveniences and I would highly recommend this as a place to stay.
