We took a slight risk staying off the main island where the main tourist attractions are, in order to avoid paying the very high prices. The risk paid off, as the apartment was a 2-5 minute walk from a bus stop that would take you on a 10 minute trip to Venice.
Alessandra recommended a good pizzeria which was just around the corner , as well as a supermarket that was a 5 minute walk away.
The flat was very clean and tidy and had everything we needed. TV, big kitchen, comfy bedroom, clean bathroom. Just perfect.
If I am to return to Venice , I will definitely look to stay here again!
