If you're looking for a place away from all the touristy hustle and bustle of Venice this is the place! A vaporetto pass is a must, but staying on Giudecca is great for a realistic feel of the local Venetian life. The place was spacious and light, with many windows overlooking the playground right outside the window (you can hear the children playing but it didn't bother us at all). We loved the supermarket right downstairs. The fold-out sofa was quite comfy and overall it was a great place to stay.
