Miriam's place had everything we needed! We felt very at home and very relaxed. There are buses into Venice however it is only about a half an hour walk which is really easy! You get to see more that way too! The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. Would highly recommend staying in Miriam's place! There is also an amazing Italian restaurant 2 minutes walk away called il Pallaio which was beautiful food and very reasonably priced.
