Has a classic Venetian feel about it, in a quiet location near a park. There are some local amenities including a good pizza restaurant.
The apartment was spotlessly clean and well equipped and was bigger than expected.
Walking into the centre would take quite a while (we never did it) so having a pass for the Vaporetto (water bus) is a must really - we loved this as it gave spectacular views of Venice.
We met the host and she was charming.
