this is an amazing find, tucked away near the Giardini. its a typical italian building, with neighbouring buildings close by, so unfortunately no views BUT perfect location to explore Venice & the surrounding islands. Walking distance to St Marks Square & beyond, but far enough away to avoid the main tourist trails. Good bars, restaurants & supermarket close by. The vaporetto waterbus is virtually on the doorstep, Great for getting about & out to the islands. I'd also recommend the N line (night bus) for early morning departures from VCE airport - almost a private night ride along Grand Canal!
