Great location with a fabulous view. If you're not used to noise, you may want some earplugs if you are sleeping on the sofa bed in the living room as the sound of the boats going past is audible. The Planca café on the waterfront was the cheapest and quickest for the classic cappucino & croissant combo (€2.5). You may also find it useful to bring shampoo & conditioner as it isn't provided in the flat but that's quickly resolved with a trip to the Coop supermarket down the back streets of Guidecca. Go to the rooftop bar at the Stucky during the day not at night when you really can't see much and the view is obstructed. Take the 4.2 vaporetto from Piazzale Roma to get to the flat quickly (only 3 stops). Guidecca is quiet and full of interesting little galleries, and the flat is really well situated to both explore it or cross over to Zarrete in 3 minutes and walk to San Marco (20mns).
