The bus nearby goes directly into Venice between 8.45 and 9.15, which is early, but worth getting up for, as you get there in 35 minutes and miss the crowds for a couple of hours. Otherwise expect a journey of an hour with a bus and a tram journey, which in reverse, is the only way to get back from Venice. Local restaurant's to Filippo's home are very good, so don't feel that you have to eat in Venice. 40 Euros each pays for all your bus, tram and boat needs to and from and around Venice for 72hrs. Well worth it if you are fit enough to roam around Venice for 3 days. (Also 30 Euros for 2 days)
Filippo and his Mum spotlessly prepare a very clean and cosy self-contained annex with all the facilities you could possibly need. Far, far better than staying in a hotel, in a quiet, very safe and very friendly neighbourhood.
Filippo's English is amazingly good, so there is nothing that he cannot advice you on. His mother is learning English, speaks it well and enjoys conversations in English.
