Fiorenza was a lovely host. She was very helpful recommending us places to eat in the area of Mestre and Venice. Her guidebook was very helpful, it helped us get around and locate the bus stops which are all near the home. It is about a 5 minute walk from the train station which was fairly convenient. The only note I would add is that the bed is not uncomfortable. They are two twins put together, but they offer no support from the mattress and pillows. My boyfriend and I woke up with sore backs and a stiff neck. We also had to go buy more toilet paper, but that was probably a small oversight. Overall, her place was nice and we had no trouble taking the bus to venice and back. She is near grocery stores and tobacco shops that sell bus tickets.
