This was a great place to stay for our short visit to Venice! It was “off the beaten path” enough that we could enjoy quiet walks exploring the city and a quiet home base. The walk to San Marco is maybe 10-15min (we went a slow pace to take everything in) but there’s plenty of options nearby (cafe, dinner, etc). The water bus stop is nearby as well so we were able to take that across to Guidecca or to San Marco in 2-3 stops, very fast!
