Nicola’s place was a nice spot to stay in Venice! A little off the tourist path so you feel like you have some room to breathe! It really pushed you more into local territory, but to get back to touristy areas it’s all right there! As with the listing name and the way Venice is built, it does go through a dark alley/tunnel to get there! My American woman brain when I see stuff like that is turn around and walk the other way, but we never had a problem with it and there is a light that turns on at night to stop it from being fully creepy. Overall, a nice stop to rest for a few days!
