Betty's place was PERFECT. This part of the city is away from all of the busy tourist areas, but they are still easy to walk to. It's a quiet beautiful neighborhood and perfect to stay in if visiting the Venice Biennale. We got a two-day pass to the exhibition and were able to come back to the apartment to prepare lunches and take breaks. The apartment is very clean, light, and has a great kitchen for cooking full meals (which we do when we travel). The bed was comfortable, shower wonderful...I will stay again next time I visit Venice! I
