When you come to Venice more often and know about the public transportation and locations, this is a fine place to hide from the overwhelming plague called turism. My friends fell in love with the neighbourhood and said when to return to always come back to this part of town. However if you are chearching for the pumping buzz of Venitian nightlife this is not your spot! (provided there is such a thing as a pumping Venitian nightlife!) The appartment has all the ingredients you need for an agreable stay over, main asset of course is the silence at night and friendly helpful neighbours. For people with Hilton or Mariot standards, go to the Hilton or the Mariot. Plenty of good restaurants and bars in the facinity.
