Giacomo's place is perfect for those who want to feel a part a Venetian soul. Via Garibaldi is a very lively street with full of interactions between vénitiens and of course some tourists. Lots of bar, restaurants and a big supermarket with a good butcher"s shop and cooked meats. The place is not central but easy to join by vaporeto (the nearest station is very near) or by feet. It is a pleasure to walk cross Castello, its small streets and places. Going to Piazza San Marco takes only 15 mn walking and it is a delicious experience to walk along the laguna at any time of the day.The flat itself has everything you need during a tourist stay. It is clean and confortable. And Giacomo is a very nice host. I recommend without hesitation.
