A great place to stay cheaply in Venice, and with the best host! Seriously, Ludo came to pick me up at the train station, and treated me to a Spritz after a long day travelling. And through the stay was super hospitable, down to offering to make me a proper Italian espresso the morning I left. I wasn’t expecting much from a place offered so cheaply, and yes the room is basically just a place to crash at night. But you’re in an ideal mainland spot to get to the island and the excellent hosting scales the deal. Be aware though, it’s on a busy bus route so you may find the traffic a bit loud at night. It never bothered me, but after a long day out in Venice I didn’t stay awake long.
