The flat is located right next to the water-bus stop, no bridged to cross, which is rare in Venice. It is in a very quiet area, no turist crowds around (if you do not count the bells from the nearby church, which start chiming at 7 a.m.); though you do not have to worry, the sound is rather pleasant, not like an alarm. The place is very spacious and the balcony is definitely a bonus. It was spotless clean when we arrived. We appreciated the possibility to leave the luggage in a storage room early in the morning, before checking in (5 euro/ piece). Pietro was very responsive (we needed an extra mosquito repellent and he immediately provided one). In the are there are bars where the locals go, I do recommend to spent evenings there, especially end of week when there is live music. If available in the future, I would book this place again.
