Top place to stay! The apartment was perfect - compact but very homely and has everything you could need. Location was amazing, with a few delicious bakeries on your doorstep and some fantastic restaurants and bars in the ghetto area just a short walk away, over the canal. Make sure to try the local Venetian doughnuts - sugary, spiced and fruity.
Marcello went above and beyond as a host, leaving us chocolates and croissants for the morning. On arrival he took us for a coffee and a doughnut and pointed out some recommended local haunts.
We have had a brilliant trip! Definitely stay here if you come to Venice.
