This was a short but wonderful visit at the end of October. I have been to Venice before & was worried about the aqua alta if we stayed near St Marks Square. I found this airbnb w/ very good reviews & thought it would be nice staying away from the tourist crowds but close enough to walk or take a vaporetto to the city center. Plus, it is close to the St Lucia train station. Only thing is if you have lots of baggage like we did, you might want to consider having a porter & there is a short flight of steps into the airbnb. Other than that-it was clean, simple, modern, homy, & had netflix!!! I recommend Daria’s place if the above is what you’re looking for.
