We really enjoyed this place. It was a 20-minute bus ride to Venice island on a crowded local bus, but Luca gave us good directions. He was a wonderful host, and truly bent over backward to make sure our short stay in Venice was perfect. The airport pickup was great; it made arriving in Italy much easier. The apartment is clean and comfy, with a nice view, and is convenient for shops and restaurants. If you wanted to cook you might find it difficult; there were pretty limited supplies. Also, there is not an AC in the bedroom, just the living room- so the bedroom got very warm as it was 33 outside when we were visiting. The living room ac would probably be sufficient when it wasn't that hot though.
