Host was excellent to communicate with and even allowed us to checkin early! The building is right on the water, but the location is quite far from the station and major sites. If you have a lot of luggage I wouldn’t recommend walking, but instead check if the water route is better. Budget at least 20 mins to get to the places you want to see, but the views walking there were quite nice. We had MANY mosquitos in our room, not sure if this is typical for Venice or due to the proximity to the water.
