We’ve spent 2 nights (August 13-15) at Pietro’s place and we really enjoyed our stay there. Ketty checked us in and gave us an advice where to go and what to see during our stay. Since it was our first time in Venice, it was very helpful.
Pros:
- strategic location: 10 min walk from the bus station, walking distance to the major attractions like Frari Church, Realto Bridge, Grand Canal, St. Mark’s Square etc. There’s a grocery store (3 min walk) and a lot of pizzerias and restaurants around. We liked the neighborhood: quiet and not too touristy.
- the place itself was cute, cozy and very clean. The building is very old and has a character. We loved old exposed beams, wooden shutters and old tiny elevator.
- the beds (one queen size and one twin) and pillows were pretty comfy
- a/c unit was relatively quiet and kept our place cool during the stay
- the kitchen was tiny, but it had everything we needed: a gas range, a fridge, a coffeemaker, a microwave, all the cookware, dishes, and utensils.
- a washing machine was a huge bonus!
Cons:
- we had some problems with the internet connection, but it was fixed
We highly recommend this place and would stay there again and again :) Thank you very much!
