The Badoer Studio is perfectly situated in a great pocket of Venice. In about 10 minutes you can walk to Rialto Bridge, and you can also grab a traditional Traghetto at the San Toma stop. There are wonderful shops nearby, a great little supermarket, and the studio itself (quite cosy) is fitted out beautifully. The building is SO solid and that feels comforting. It was perfect for me as a single traveller, since I was out most days until late, and had somewhere snug to return to for a great night's sleep! The windows open directly onto a canal (so you can have fresh air with total security), and the gondoliers pass quite close; sometimes they are singing. The sound of water is amazing, and the absence of cars :) I had a really special and memorable stay. Thanks Marzia and Tina for providing such a great space.
