This place was great for the 4 of us. Getting here from Marco Polo airport was easy (the 15 bus drops off 2 blocks away), and access to Venice was easy, too (15-20 mins on the 4L bus from the same stop).
The apartment was clean and tidy tucked on a quiet side street, but was an easy walk to a variety of restaurants, cafes, bakery, grocery store, etc. that were all a lot cheaper than the full tourist prices on Venice. There is no separate living room in the apartment (just the eat-in kitchen), but were out and about all the time anyway. A great home base for exploring Venice!
