We had a really enjoyable stay for 6 days at the start of the Venice Architecture Biennale. The flat comfortably accommodated four of us (couple in the double room, which had its own bathroom), one in the single room (large, with a little balcony) and one in the 'kitchen' (basically a full sized room which happens to have the cooker and fridge / freezer inside - while this might sound a bit strange, don't be put off because it's also a large, light, airy room).

We didn't meet Marta in person, but she was very responsive to messages and it was easy to pick up the keys from her friend Clara who lives right next door.

On the map it might look a bit away from Venice itself, which I wasn't sure about at first, but in practice it's actually a benefit: it's a beautiful setting, a quiet road and you can see green fields. The bus (Route A) is right nearby, so it's only 5 minutes (12 if it goes the other direction around a 'loop') to the vaporetto stop / supermarket / coffee shops etc) and that bus runs every 10 minutes from 8 am to midnight.

We didn't get the chance to rent bikes to explore the rest of the Lido, but did go for a few morning runs - 20 mins will take you to the town via the Adriatic coast along the beach.

If I had to say anything negative about our stay, there was some noise from a nearby disco on a Friday night - but that didn't go on too late, and was ok once we shut the shutters & windows.

Overall, I'd definitely stay here again. Also really appreciated the coffee machine!
