We've never seen the host, instead we were provided a Russian speaking contact person (which was nice). The bad thing was that person wasn't in Venice at the time of our arrival. We gave her a call from Tronchetto parking and still had to wait for about half an hour at the meeting point near Rialto bridge. We've arrived some 15 minutes after 10p.m. and were charged additional €20 for late arrival, which is normal I guess. The host in her letter earlier also stated that €50 penalty would apply for arrival after midnight. This rule was not listed on airbnb site and I consider it unfair. An attempt was made to charge us more than €20 but we've managed to negotiate.

The way the sofa in the common room turns into bed is a bit uncomfortable. It consists of two separate platforms which can easily slide apart.
