The room was spacious and clean. Having the private bathroom was definitely a plus as well. The breakfast was ready for us in a little cubby with our room name on it (there are 2 or 3 other rooms as it is an actual BnB). The espresso machine was great as well.
There was a washer, but no dryer, which didn't bother us since they had an area outside to air dry. The best part is that while we were in the city it started to downpour, and we just assumed our clothes were going to be soaked. When we got back, they had moved our clothes in their shed so that they didn't get wet. We were very grateful, but didn't have a chance to thank Gianni since we had to leave early in the morning.
The only downside was when we arrived, we had to wait at the big gate for about 15 minutes. We tried ringing the bell, and eventually an older gentleman came out an opened the gate for us. Gianni was in the back helping out with yard work, so couldn't hear his phone. He was apologetic, and then went over details about how to get into the city, what was good to eat close by (the one pizza place about 10 minutes away is great!).
We really appreciated Gianni's friendliness and liked that it only took about 15-20 minutes to get into the city. If we come back to Venice, we'll definitely see if Gianni's bnb is available!
