Location is amazing!! Apartment is very basic! Yes I would rent this flat again!! Value - For the location and the price!!
Literally 50 steps to St. Marks, Shopping, Resturants, Gondala Ride, and Morano Glass Factory!! We arrived opened the shutters to Gondala’s going by! Felt like a movie! Then we walked out the back way and there was a Gondala Station! E 80 for a 30 minute ride! Just like in the movies!!! Several cafes and gelato within. Steps!!
Things we found out that would have been helpful!
Arrival - 90+ minutes
1. Out of train station think Venice St. Lucia — waterTaxi 1, also E. Is to the far Right. Purchase 1 pass or multi pass ticket before boarding!
2. It is a 1 hour water taxi ride from train to get off.
3. We were met at the St Marco station.
4. Then walked 5 to 7 min. Carry/pull bag! Travel light!!!!!!
5. If you want a late checkout ask ahead!
Stay
1. It was quiet from 11 pm to 6 30 am. Then you can hear people outside and in the building.
2. Mattress and bedding could be better
3. No laundry soap to make use of washer. Bring your own pods!
4. Not sure if I didn’t read close enough but it is a studio not a 1 bedroom!
Departure during May - 3+ hours
1. Allow plenty of time!!!!
2. We went to the VCE airport. There is an ‘express boat’. From water taxi station realto! Took 1 hour after getting on boat!
3. Took 15 minutes to walk there
4. 15 min to purchase express ticket
5. Boat is every 30 minutes!!?
6. 15 minute walk from ‘boat dock’ to airport terminal

We allowed 3 hours from time we left apartment to boarding and we had about only 15 min to wait. Cut it very close!
