Lara's apartment was just as good a place to stay as we expected from the listing. It is spacious, bright and clean, and convenient for getting the bus into Venice. Lara and her husband met us when we arrived and were very tolerant of our train delay - they were welcoming and shared lots of useful information. We spent a great week here - would recommend for a place to stay away from the tourist crowds in Venice but close enough to the island that you can spend plenty of time there exploring. Thanks Lara.
