I had a room with a veery nice view to one of the canals. The room was spacious for Europe standards. Had everything I needed (fridge, ac etc..) and Fabio is great and friendly with his guests. I had a bit of a problem finding the place but that's on google maps. Just message Fabio and he'll explain.
Everything on Venice is on walking distance but we were a bit on the north side near the train station (a plus for me, actually as I was leaving very early in the morning and you can get there in 7-8 mins walking). The basilica and the piazza are like 20minutes on foot but on the way there are many stores and restaurants and souvenirs and it's fun to get lost in these streets. Sad that I didn't have the chance to try the breakfast because of my schedule. Definitely recommend it, in short!
