Excellent location. And very quiet. It was nice staying on the island. Venice is the walking city- there was a grocery store nearby and good little cafes! We stayed during carivale and it was a lot of fun. When first walking in it seems like going to Grandma's house. But then it just kind of turned into the charm of it. Be sure to ask the host how to operate the heater if you are there in cold months... that place heats up!!! Bathrooms were very clean. And the house is HUGE by standards that we are used to in Europe. We travel with two small children and I think it was the best nights sleep for my husband- the rooms are very far from living room and there are a few doors you can close so it was quiet! Overall a great stay.
