Very basic accommodation in the center of Venice. Charming and tucked away. We loved the local feel of the neighborhood, and the easy, pleasant walk to the famous sights of Venice. The apartment is located in a quiet, small alley courtyard just steps from the Grand Canal and with easy access to the train station and the bus station. Elena, who is an employee and is not the owner, showed outstanding hospitality when she met us at the bus station late at night and showed us the way to the apartment, with plenty of local tips and local pride. Be prepared to pay a large fee for checking in after 10 o’clock. It was no problem to walk to and from the train station and bus station with our carryon luggage. Swift communication and easy check in. Read the listing carefully for details on late check-in fee, cleaning fee, and city tax, which are all paid in cash upon check in. I found this to be a perfect little home for exploring such a marvelous and beautiful city.
