Excellent experience staying at the apartment of Alessandro. Mestre is beautiful small town and many of the local people actually live there - they only travel to Venice for work.
You won't make a mistake booking that place, it's 5min walk from the bus to Venice and another 10-15m travel. Transportation is working until late in the night so you can enjoy all things in the evenings and still be able to return easily.
Apartment is large enough for 4, well equipped, safe area. Everything was super clean.
On top of all, you get THE MOST DETAILED explanation about Venice as Alessandro is an architect in the Venice municipality, so you don't even need to prepare in advance
