The
Casa Sant'Andrea
is a former 16th Century monastery that's located just behind the Piazzale Roma,
facing a quiet canal. It offers one- to four-bed guestrooms with and without
private facilities.
Unlike many budget B&Bs in Venice, the Casa Sant'Andrea has an
elevator, so you won't have to haul your luggage up a flight of stairs.
How to reach Casa Sant'Andrea from Piazzale Roma:
As you leave the airport bus or taxi, walk toward the large
parking garage and the People Mover station behind the airport buses.
Cross the street to the People Mover station, using the red
crosswalk.
Go left, past the station entrance and turn right at the
corner.
Follow
the tree-shaded pedestrian walkway under the People Mover's tracks.
At the next corner, turn right and walk a short distance
along the canal to the Casa Sant'Andrea.
