Also always confused by this - been there 5 times over the years in different seasons and never had any issues with it

I've been there once, also didn't notice any stink. Maybe it's a seasonal thing?

Yep, raising a hand ... we were there in March/April ... no smell.

I'd grown up thinking of Venice as the stinky city of Europe, lol

It's a magical city.
