Carlo was an excellent host. Very friendly and welcoming. We arrived late and he stayed up to greet my mother and I. The neighborhood is quiet and has everything you need within a 5-10 minute walk. Resturants, coffee shop, bakery and grocery stores. The tram stop to get into Venice is super close and I am really happy we chose to stay off of the actual island of Venice. The house itself was clean and comfortable. I would happily recommend this place to anyone!
