Sebastiano gave us a warm welcome at the station and kindly escorted us to the apartment. A fantastic location in a quiet area but close to some good restaurants and supermarket. Easy to walk to all the sights and fairly easy to get your bearings. Zattere is lovely and you can catch some of the water buses there. We used a 1 day ticket for 20 euro and found that sufficient to scoot around and see lots including some of the islands. The number 1 up the Grand Canal is a good journey and the 4.2 goes right round Venice and to Murano. The apartment is very spacious and full of character - a lovely place to stay. We'd recommend to anyone visiting Venice.
