TROUBLE in Venice

Look out for this host in the Venice area by the name of Abraham Monitor. He rents a number of units in Venice.  Upon my arrival in Venice, he and his assistants demanded additional money in CASH as a condition of taking us to the property which had to be accessed by boat. Upon refusing to agree to this extra amount that was not originally agreed upon, he grabbed my arm in an aggressive manner [he is half my age]. We made alternative housing arrangements because we did not feel safe with this host and did not appreciate the extra unannounced fees.
