Our stay in Venice was very nice. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the apartment. It was close to the main ‘road’ around the island, so we mostly spent our time out sightseeing. It is very close to the train station and pretty close to the bus station as well. It ended up raining while we were in Venice, and it was very nice to find that our hosts had umbrellas in the apartment for us to borrow. This was a godsend! The washer worked well, and everything else we used did as well!
