my colleagues and i just had the most lovely stay here. the house itself was beautiful (5 beds and a canal view!) and had a spacious kitchen. for biennale attendees, location could not be better; the bnb sits squarely btwn the giardini / arsenale (5-10min walk) by via garibaldi. street is safe & quiet, but still full of food options & near a local supermarket. only downside is that there was no wifi, but otherwise -- highly recommend!
