Mara's place is such a lovely and cozy appartment that gives you time to relax and the opportunity to experience Venice and Mestre all in once. It is super easy to get to Venice in roughly 30 mins by tram. I used the outside area to have some breakfast or spend some time reading during the hot times of day. Mara is a perfect host - her reaction time to any questions I had was amazing. She even made it possible to have a friend of mine sleep in the appartment for 3 nights as well. In case you look for an appartment that is outside of the touristic hustle of Venice but still close enough to explore the city on a daily basis Mara's place is the perfect choice.
