We had a great time in Venezia. The neighborhood is very quiet compared to the other parts of the city that are full of tourists day and night.
You can walk to the ocean in a few minutes to have a great view of the sunset and you are minutes away from some pretty great restaurants that are not overflowing with tourists.
The apartment was very clean and tidy, the washing machine and the air conditioning were great amenities for us around this time of the year.
Just one thing: we would recommend not taking out the trash on the last day of the trip unless you have a great sense of direction (which can be hard in Venezia :-D). We had trouble finding the right boat on our first try. Just look out for it a few days before you leave to avoid some stress.
Our tip for a great quiet restaurant with AMAZING fresh food that is totally affordable: Trattoria Da Sara.
