We traveled by car, and the apartment was easy to find. Adriana and Giovanna met us there, and gave us so much information! We knew just how to find the tram, where to take the garbage, how to work the blinds... And they provided a notebook with additional information available. The apartment felt so spacious, and was very clean and comfortable.
The tram stop is just around the corner where we could catch a ride to Venice. We purchased the 3 day pass from the tobacco store nearby, and it was worth every cent! It covered access to the tram, the buses, and the water buses in Venice.
We enjoyed a couple of restaurants near the apartment: Bombay Spice and Saikesushi. Both were within walking distance, reasonably priced for a couple, and had excellent food. The notebook suggested some grocery stores nearby, but because we had the car (and needed easy parking), we drove to the Simply market which is a bit further away. They have a parking garage underneath their store that made access very easy. It is a large market where we could find food for meals we planned to eat in. We also purchased laundry detergent to use the washer. It was easy to use.
The one thing I would say to anyone who plans to stay here is to manage your showers. The hot water tank in the bathroom is not very large, and we found that we needed to space our showers out about an hour so that we would each have enough hot water. Otherwise, the stay was flawless.
Many thanks to Adriana and Giovanna for sharing their home with us!
