For those who like to shop the supermarket and do some cooking, this is a great place. Large store is a block away; with access to buses (block away) onto the main Island or tram with short walking distance to Mestre train station. Nearby is a photocopy store, and other shops. This is a neighborhood away from tourists, people live there all the time, so it is quiet at night. Buses run early and late. WiFi gave us connection to home, local schedules as well as Mara if we needed something. If you are a tourist get a transportation pass so you can get around easily. Same pass Is used for canal boats.!
