Cristina’s apartment is clean and quiet and equipped with everything you would need for a short or longer stay, and the host was friendly and helpful. The apartment is a couple of minutes walk from Via Garibaldi, which has a great selection of cafés and restaurants, as well as a couple of supermarkets and other useful shops eg. post office. Very well located for the biennale, it's a 15-20 minute walk into the centre of town, but the Arsenale water bus stop is very close for those who don't like to walk. Highly recommended!
