Serena was such a gracious host and her home was very centrally located, although not inundated with tourist crowds. We had a very unfortunate late arrival to Venice and Serena was nice enough to stay up and give us instructions for navigating public transportation. This saved us more than 150 euros for our round trip from central Venice. Her home is beautiful, the bed linens were of very high quality and the kitchen was stocked with basic supplies for a lovely breakfast/coffee/tea. I hope to come back again!
