Jo-Ann was a marvelous host who greeted me with sunflowers and scones. The private back space is filled with eucalyptus and a fig tree — a lush respite in Venice. Amenities included everything I could need and more; Jo-Ann offered use of a bicycle, told me I was free to call her anytime with any questions. The space is airy and bright, the perfect balance of mid-modern and cottage-esque.
