I was greeted by Alberto's wife, Caterina, who was all smiles and charming; made me feel at home straight away. The area is perfect if you want peace and quiet, far enough away from the madness of the tourist traps, but close enough to stroll to San Marco (appx 10-15mins). Lots of great local amenities nearby, and a gorgeous park to relax in. The locals are also, like the hosts, really friendly. The apartment is cosy, clean and exactly as described. Great for a couple, even better if you're flying solo, as it's such good value for money!!
