Venice bans driving. So if you, like me, drive to Venice, you better off finding a good place to stay and take the transportation to the city of water. Kristin's apartment has a private parking space, so you don't need to worry about what could happen to your car if you park it on the street. It has two bed rooms with two beds in one room, good for a family of four. it has a fenced private garden with Barbecue oven and a gazebo with table and benches. Since my stay was short, I did have time to use the garden much, but I really like it. It is a very convenient place with 5 minutes walk to the bus station , which leading to the Venice city bus terminal, from where you can purchase 24 or 48 hours bus & water taxi tickets. Kristin's husband is a native Venetian, he introduced me Venice history and offered me many travel hints in Venice. I recommend it.
