Myriam's place is a gem, situated off of a side canal that leads into the Grand Canal. We so enjoyed eating meals on the balcony, which was idyllic! The area is quiet, off the beaten tourist track, but only minutes away from the vaperetto and also the Scalzi Bridge, so there is the perfect middle ground of privacy/quiet and access. There's a supermarket around the corner on the canal, and also a quite good pizza restaurant next door to take out and eat on the balcony. The entrance way is filled with beautiful flowers and opens up onto a small campo. Highly recommended, a big winner!
