Our stay at Luca's apartment was wonderful. It is spacious yet warm and cosy and has everything you need for a stay in Venice. The washer and drying are a great advantage. Its located in a residential area for locals and is a short walk to Piazza san Marco. Conveniently located only 50 m from Arsenale vaporetto stop so not far to lug cases. There is a tiny elevator at the apartment too so no need to carry cases up to the 4th floor. Arsenale is the next stop after San Marco so about a 50 min picturesque ride from the train station. There is a handy bar/cafe downstairs and a local shopping street nearby.
Luca's Mum made a welcome cake which was a lovely touch.
I would recommend Lucas place to anyone looking for good value and room to move.
