I had come to Venice for seeing and photographing the Carnival and as I travel a lot I was looking for a budget accommodation. My experience could not have been better - I would call it my 6-star home while in Venice. The apartment is cozy, comfortable, beautifully decorated and offers everything one or two people might need for a temporary stay near Venice.

Just around one corner is the bus stop and it takes 15 mins tops to Piazzale Roma. A one-way ticket is currently 1.30 Euros. Around the other corner is a large supermarket (open daily apart from Sunday until 8 p.m.). The home is quiet, has a fully functional kitchen, a great bathroom and a nice outdoor area which you might enjoy once the weather gets warmer.

Of course there is WiFi Internet and a small desk for your laptop.

I wish I could have stayed longer but I had booked my next flight to Istanbul already. Nevertheless, I hope to be back. If you are a solo traveler or a couple don't hesitate to stay at Mara's Little Venice Home with Garden - I am sure that you won't regret it.
