We had the loveliest stay at Linda’s family home! We were warmly welcomed by her daughter, grandson and super sweet dog. The entire family was super helpful when we had questions about the area, public transport and everything else you can think of. It is just twenty minutes to Venice by bus, which practically stops in front of the front door, and the treinstation is very close as well. It is also definitely worth to visit the center of Mestre, which is small, cozy and has much better prices than the center of Venice! Linda and her daughter provided us with information about the area as well as the old center of Venice. Everything was super tidy and clean, we literally had everything we needed! Even a garden to sit in. I would definitely recommend staying with them for their hospitality and kindness, but also for the location: it is great to be able to get out of the hectic centre of the city and rewind in a quieter area when you have seen so much in a day.
