She welcomed us nicely although we had a train delay. She prepared some food for us, and it was very helpful for us, because our arrival was on January first and almost all the shops around the apartment were closed! Also there were lots of information organized in the room.
The closest station is "Venezia Mestre", and you can go to the Venezia island (the station is "Venezia S.L." ) by train for 10-15 min. It takes only more or less five min. to go to Venezia Mestre station from the apartment. Also, there were some nice restaurants close to the apartment too!
