This was an Airbnb gem. A short walk form the railway statio in Venice (which is important if you want to avoid the outrageous water taxi charges) and Caudio met us at the agreed place to take us to the apartment and showed us the workings of the place and made us feel very welcome and right at home, thanks Claudio. It is a shared bathroom but that was not an issue at all, the occupant of the other bedroom was a lovely English guy who was hardly there. It is a bit away from the main tourist drag so it's very quiet at night and a nice neighbourhood with lots of local residents around. The bedroom has a very nice view over the neighbouring gardens. All in all a place a would certainly recommend for a stay in Venice.
