Host is super communicative and helpful which went a long way to making our stay comfortable. for people who live in europe or southeast asia (both for us) it's charming and great for 3-4 people (quiet, which goes a long way in venice). for americans (my parents who travelled with), the AC isnt strong and the shower/bathroom are very small. venice is hot and humid in summer so that can be pretty uncomfortable for those not used to it.
otherwise we had a great stay.
