We really loved Marina's place. The apartament was huge for two people, and it had everything we needed. It also felt like someone's home and not just a rental. It was beautifully decorated and very clean. It is also very close to one of the water bus stops ( 1 min walk) which is ideal if you don't want to be rolling your bags through bridges and long streets. It is centrally located, but away from the crowds and we walked everywhere from there. Marina was very kind, she gave us directions to get to her place, waited for us at the bus stop, gave us recommendations of things to do in Venice and also helped us figure out a way to get to the airport at 3 am. She woke up at 1:40am to say goodbye as well. Would definitely come back here and I recommend this place to anyone!
