This was is fantastic. It is an easy ten minute walk from the train station and a great home base for walking the rest of Venice. It also has so many comforts of home that make your stay special - hand towels for the bathroom and nice large bath towels, kitchen towels, a well-stocked kitchen (including coffee pot!), extra blankets, lots of outlets in the right places and plenty of hot water!!! (This is a luxury when traveling with a family of four as we often run out). We also enjoyed all the interesting decorative touches that have it character. Nico was very communicative and responsive to my questions about Venice which also added to the good hospitality.
