Such a pleasant stay! We didn't actually get to meet Mauro, but we did get to meet Marli and Lula! Marli was the perfect host, very kind and helpful. For me, one of the best parts of about the B&B was Lula the dog! She was so cute and friendly and her presence made us feel right at home. The apartment itself was very clean and fairly spacious. The bed was extremely comfortable and fit two easily, the bathroom was clean and as well as pleasant and the breakfast set up was adorable! The location was good too, about a 20 minute bus ride from Venice and the bus stop is right around the corner. It was also fairly easy to get to and from the Mestre train station. Overall, a wonderful stay. Great host, great breakfast, great location, great apartment!
