Everything about Ca` Barba and host Alessandro was better than expected. We have previously been guided to hotels, but the clean, cosy and homely atmosphere contributed to a memorable stay in a loverly city. Previous reviews endorsing the location, information and assistance provided, restaurant recommendations and breakfasts are probably under-stated. Alessandro's advice to get out and away from the usual tourist spots and 'get lost' enabled us live and enjoy a wonderful stay in a place that we are bound to return to.
