This really is a great base to explore Venice. It's close to the bus and train stations and the vaporetto, yet hidden away from all the busyness.
Traudy was a great host and met us at the bus station on our arrival to lead us through the alleyways to the apartment. She gave us a thorough introduction and provided lots of useful information for our stay, including tips for things to do and restaurants and bars to sample local cuisine.
The apartment looks exactly like the pictures, and is equipped with everything you need plus a few extra touches. It was hot while we were there, so the air conditioning was very welcome.
We'd love to stay there again some day.
