The host is a nice person, genuine at heart to help your stay and moving around Venice. Location is very strategic, easy to find, walking distance to Venezia Mestre, easy to reach the city by train or bus and Venice is not so big to enjoy. Although language can be a barrier, but always with people who lives in Italy, body language is the best way to communicate, so there's no problem :-) The place is clean and I think this is the most important aspect when staying. Breakfast is well served. Wi-fi was working well. The only concern for me was not knowing in advance that the stairs was quite a walk which could be a concern for those who are older/have problem with knee. But for those who are still young or don't have any problem with knee, this should not be any problem at all. I would recommend this place for your time in Venice.
