Siria’s place is wonderful— centrally located but on a quieter street in Venice that felt less touristy. There’s a lot of wonderful restaurants a block or two away, so you can eat close by or venture out into the city more. Also, it’s close to a water bus stop, which comes in handy if you don’t want to walk. The place itself is spacious and well set-up, and she kindly provided snacks and drinks, which was a great touch. Also, as a woman, I felt totally safe walking back at night. There was some noise from outside during the day (which I only noticed one day as I was sleeping off some jet lag!) and some thumping at night, which may have come from an upstairs unit. (It’s on the bottom floor of a building.) Siria kindly let me drop off my things early since I got into Venice before the check-in time, which was very kind.
One note: the WiFi did go in and out twice, which was strange, and there was no explanation for it, so that was somewhat frustrating, as I was trying not to use data.
All in all, would definitely recommend this place!
