the apartment is huge! It's clean and the buses to Venice do come every ten minutes, the ride to town takes about 15 minutes, so it's the perfect solution to how to stay out of the crowds (and prices) of Venice. the neighborhood is quiet, only on the last day we discovered that on the other side of the railway station (7 minute walk) is a small commercial center, with places to get your coffee even when other places in "our" side of the station were closed... The hosts were perfect and welcoming, going out of the way to help, finding solutions to our wishes.... so thanks!
