Cristina was a great host, right from check-in to even after we had checked out. When we arrived, we were provided us with a helpful map, and she gave us some helpful tips for places to visit and getting around. Her place is located in an excellent location, very near to several restaurants and shops, and just a 5 minutes walk from the main train station at Venice. It's easy to walk around and see most of Venice from Cristina's place. The room and apartment are beautiful (and very clean), a great place to stay in Venice.
