Wally’s place is an ideal place from which to visit Venice. Far from the maddening crowd but just a few steps away from the bus to bring you to it.
The flat itself is adorable, super clean and well-equipped. The air conditioning was a great bonus in the Summer 2022 heat wave.
The living room couch was comfy and the kitchen table was just enough for meals at home.
The kitchen had absolutely everything I needed for basic food prep, including an apron (extra points for that, Elly!!!)
The bed was just right.
The bathroom had everything we needed too!
The flat was modern, simple, and very clean — exactly what you need when traveling.
The immediate neighborhood has a fantastic breakfast place, a friendly bar, a bakery, a restaurant with a simple menu, and a stunning church. What else do you need?
There are a few grocery stores within a 10 minute walk.
Explore the area if you have time. This is the real Venice!
But, if you’re in Venice for the basilicas, canals, palaces, gondolas, and history — it’s why we all go until we discover there’s more — take the 2 bus (the stop is a block away) right to it. Hint: when you get to the end of the line with the bus, don’t take the water taxi — walk through the streets to the action (Google will guide you!).
Super high thumbs up for Elly’s place. This is a great place to stay.
