Alessandro’s place is in the perfect position to be able to explore Venice, but as it’s a 10 minute ferry ride across the canal, you are away from the tourist madness. The apartment is very clean spacious and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Plenty of really good restaurants within walking distance. Alessandro is a great host, when we had an issue with the air conditioner, he arranged to come out of his way to rectify it. I highly recommend!!
