We were warmly welcomed to a lovely flat (clean and spacious) in the Venice Mestre district. A small balcony was a bonus where we had our breakfast in the sunshine and there were lovely little touches to the flat. Our host had prepared a map and gave us great instructions about how to travel to Venice and the islands. The bus stop (for number 7 and 7E) is a 1 minute walk from the front door and a 15-20 minute journey to the Venezia bus station, where you take the water buses to Venice. Absolutely perfect! It made us feel like locals and we found it quick and easy to understand. Alberto and his team made us feel very welcome and always responded quickly to my messages. I highly recommend this apartment. We had a great time and it was a perfect end to our two week holiday. Thank you so much Alberto! :)
