Manuel and Michela’s place was a lovely stay away from the craziness of the touristy areas, but close enough to be able to get everywhere easily by walking or boat. Michela met me at the ferry when I arrived which was lovely so I didn’t get lost trying to navigate the streets of Venice. The places is so spacious and the Terrance is a nice touch. However, you can hear upstairs and the staircase up is very narrow. It wasn’t a problem for me, but anyone who might be concerned!
