The apartment was very close to all the main sites in Venice and the Vaporetto stops. The kitchen was fully equipped and we felt very safe. Especially thanks to the lock on the door. It was pretty quiet during the night since the apartment is in a very small street. We were a group of 5 friends and we were okay with the no - doors issue. It was also very spacious considering the amount of people. We didn't meet Elisa but her neighbor who welcomed us was very friendly and we understood each other despite our lack of italien and her lack of englisch. Thank you!
