We stayed for 3 nights at the appartment of Alberto and we were very happy. As it is not in the most touristic area but near the giardini, it is a quiet place at night, even though there is a supermarcet, restaurants and little shops nearby to be self-sufficient with cooking. Is is small, but it has everything you need. The Biennale is right around the corner, the more touristic places can be reached by walking 20 minutes oder going by vaporetto. Alberto was a kind host and the communication was uncomplicated. Thank your for a nice stay!
