A property that is a bit like an airbnb or hostel but not a hotel. It is in a block of flats/offices and has been converted into a holiday let where the two rooms are let out. You are contacted a few days before your stay and are asked to call about 10 minutes before arriving to meet someone to let you in. Unconventional and if you're arriving late at night you could feel vulnerable. However it worked.
The next issue was the request for €12, in cash, not wanting an argument at 2200 on a Sunday or any time with nowhere else to go I paid up. A tourist tax is payable but it's much less than that. This was annoying and it needs to stop. A simple amendment to the listing would sort it out.
The lock on the bedroom door was very flimsy so I was unable to leave anything of value in the apartment.You could see from the frame that it had been forced in the past. The room had a main light and a small bedside light with a green bulb. No table or chair. So whilst clean it wasn't very inviting.
The bathroom is shared as per the description.
There is a small kitchen with a kettle, free espresso coffee machine, a micro and a fridge/freezer. Useful for breakfast or making sandwiches for lunch.
The host was friendly and helpful.
The room was in a very convenient location for the train station and buses to the airport and Venice.
