This was an ideal place to stay in Venice because the flat is in a peaceful residential area away from all the busyness, but still close enough that you could easily walk to all the main sights. Being in a residential area also meant that we were close to more genuine Italian restaurants, rather than the tourist traps that are often found in the touristy areas. The flat itself had everything we needed (and more!) and was very comfortable. The host went out of her way to make sure we had an amazing time, meeting us at our boat stop to take us to the flat and giving us a tour of useful things in the local area. I cannot recommend this flat enough!
