Sandra's apartment was a wonderful place to stay in Venice. It is in a quiet part of the city (away from the craziness of San Marco), but only a short walk to all the main attractions and the train station. The apartment is around the corner from a grocery store as well. We arrived before the normal check in time and Sandra was able to arrange for us to be meet at the boat station (which is super close to the apartment) and let us check in and drop our bags off so we could start exploring! I would definitely stay at Sandra's place again!
