Roberto's place is right by the bridge, you can't really miss it, about 8-10 mins walk from the train station. Roberto met us at the bridge & showed us around the place. It is very traditional & you can tell he loves the house, it was left by his grandfather. The house is spotless! Coming from an ocd person, you can trust me when I say its spotless. Even the cutlery doesn't have water stains etc... The view from the living room is the canal & streets. At night, the place quietens down quite a bit so your sleep will not be disrupted once you close the windows. The bathtub was very refreshing as we had been staying in small studios during the trip. The house is massive with a lot of place to hang out & place your luggages. He introduced us a number of restaurants & we had a amazing time. I would recommend Poggi just below the house, one of the best meals we've had & very friendly service. Having stayed in St Marco area befreo, I prefer this location as you can still walk to St Marco or take the boat but be with the local community & not pay extravagant prices for meals. He also recommended us a shoe shop which gave us 10% discount when we mentioned his name. Bonus is the rain boots he provided as they came in really handy when it started flooding on our 2nd day!
