This is the perfect place to stay in Venice. The location is nice because it is a bit off the beaten path and away from the droves of people. It's about a 15-minute walk from the train station. There are local bars and shops within a couple of blocks where you can get a glass of wine and cicchetti, or a cup of cappuccino in the morning.
The apartment is comfortable and clean with a fully equipped kitchen if you want to do some cooking. The back courtyard is shared, but we were the only ones that used it while we were there for one night. It was the perfect place to relax after exploring the twists and turns of the city.
