Davide is the most thorough host you will find on AIRBNB. He is extremely well organized, communicative, and his English is quite good. He was waiting for us at the Mestre train station for a free pick-up when we arrived. He anticipated the tabacchi shop in the neighborhood being closed by the time we arrived, so he had already purchased bus tickets into Venice for us. He had maps, bus routes, and other amenities prepared for us on our arrival. Excellent host and nice, modern apartment. The location is not a problem as buses run all day and night into Venice.
