Don't look any further, this is a wonderful place. First of all, it is walking distance from the train station (no stairs) which was a great bonus for us. Second, it is in a lovely area, away from the tourists but close to the action. From the living with high ceilings and tall windows, you have a great view of a typical Venetian canal which is a huge bonus! Just a couple of steps away is the vaporetto (public transport boat) to the centre but also to Murano and Burano. But it is also an easy walk to anywhere in Venice. Fulvia is a wonderful host, excellent communication and she left us some goodies in the fridge to get us started which we thought was a nice touch. The interior is Venetian style and totally adds to your Venetian experience. We loved to have breakfast in the kitchen and playing games and watch a movie at night in the living. There were 2 big sized bedrooms, which worked perfect for us, a family with 2 teens. Don't hesitate to book this place, if you like charm and authenticity you will love it!
