My girlfriend and I had a really great time staying here. We actually came to Venice during the highest period of flooding in over 10 years, so the fact that this was off of the main island was incredible, as we saw lots of other visitors wading through knee-deep water and carrying bags over their heads to get to their hotels. The place was clean, spacious, comfortable and quiet. Frederico was very warm and welcoming, and he provided some great local advice. It was a very peaceful couple of days, and after wandering downtown to Mestre we really felt like this was a satisfying Italian experience. If you're not dead-set on staying on the main island of Venice, I would recommend!
