Donato's apartment was perfect for our week stay in Mestre. There is a bus that goes directly to Venice less than a block from the apartment for just €1.50 one way. A large grocery store and and pizza shops are just across the street from the apartment. The apartment had everything we needed to prepare meals, and was extremely comfortable, quiet and beautifully furnished. There was also free parking beside the apartment building. Donato was quick to answer all correspondence and we were given useful information regarding our visit to Venice. We highly recommend this apartment for a stay near Venice.
