The first thing what I like about Sara is her family, they are very friendly and feel like home. Apartment is not to far from station. It's very neat, clean tidy and Sara mother is excellent. She gave us some home made bread which wax very nice to her. They have all printout for attraction, maps everything ready . Also house was very neat clean and tidy. I would say one of the best apartment I travelled in Italy and worth recommending to anyone

We had such a wonderful stay in Mestre thanks to kindness and generosity of Lia, Sara and Antonio. They were a lovely family and never let us down. The house was located in a quiet residential area yet easily accessible by the public transport. So we recommend this great accommodation. Thank you again.

My partner and I have just returned from a week's stay at Sara's house. The accommodation was lovely and clean and perfect for our visit. The studio was well laid out and well equipped. Located close to bus routes with a Lidl supermarket was less than a 10 minute walk away. Our hosts Antonio/Lia and Sara were friendly and helpful. Lia and her husband live in the apartment upstairs. Travelling around Venice is expensive - 7 euros a journey. The cheapest way to travel is to buy a ''tourist ticket which is valid on buses and vaporettos (water buses)'. Tickets may be purchased at the airport, ticket offices dotted around and also tobacconists (look for Actv logo). There are several options 1, 3, 5 or 7 day tickets. We opted for a 7 day ticket which was 50 euros each, initially this seemed a lot but after totting up the number of journeys we made (over 60) this was good value. You must validate your ticket every journey otherwise you pay a huge on the spot fine. Venice is a very beautiful city, steeped in history and well worth a visit.

The hosts were lovely. We got there about half 10 at night, and they were waiting for us and had given us some snacks, milk and coffee for breakfast the next morning. About a 20minute walk from Mestre train station, and a 15-20minute bus ride to Venice from a bus stop very close by. Maps to local shops and the bus stops, as well as timetables for buses to Venice and the airport were all provided. We only saw the hosts a few times, and they were lovely when we did, even bringing us a bottle of wine and a slice of cake when asking what time we were leaving so they could pick up they keys!
Overall, hosts were extremely nice, the apartment was spotless and it was easy to get to Venice.

Lovely Hosts, Lia and Antonio. Very helpful. As we arrived late into the evening, some homemade snacks were waiting for us. Good location, 5 mins walk to bus to Venice, 20 min bus ride to Venice itself. 5 mins walk to bus to airport. Hosts could not do enough for us. Would highlyy recommend this property.
