This is an amazing place to stay! It is easily accessible by a couple of different waterbus routes, and in easy walking distance of the Rialto and St. Mark’s Square! (~15 minutes walking) It can be difficult to escape from other tourists while in Venice, but staying here made us feel like we could breathe and have some calm from the hustle and bustle of the days. There’s a fresh food market and grocery store within a minute’s walk, and we chose to cook at home two nights just to enjoy the fresh food and peace of being on the canal with the gondolas going past. I highly recommend staying at Guia’s; you won’t regret getting a taste for the ‘real’ Venice!
