Silvia was a wonderful host. She was responsive, kind, and communicative. I felt very welcomed. The home is only a few minutes walk from a vaporetto stop, so very easy to find from the train station. It is also an easy walk to all the sights in Venice, and as a woman traveling alone, I felt completely safe even late at night. I highly recommend Silvia’s place for any solo traveler, and I would certainly stay again if I make it back to Venice.
