Roberto met us and welcomed us to his sweet home right next to the bridge. The house is about 10 minutes walk from the train station and only crossed 1 bridge which is the plus when you have luggages and kids (pack light is recommend ;) ) The house is on the 1st floor above the bakery (2nd floor as in America) is very clean and have everything we needed to feel right at home. Roberto also provided umbrellas and rain boots, which we used briefly to pick up some pastry and coffee one morning during the rain. It’s also roomy enough for the family of 5. Our kids love it too. Roberto also responded quickly if we needed/ asked for something.
It’s in the busy area, many restaurants, gelato shops, bakeries, and a coop grocery store near by for a quick run if you need some water, milk, toothpaste, fruits, snacks...
We took a walk after dinner along the canal right next to home, it’s quite and safe. This is the unique Venice that you want to truly experience without the crowd of the day trippers.
The AC works very well, it’s a must to beat the summer heat in Venice.
We highly recommend this place for family with childern or anyone who is looking for convenience, comfort, cleanness, home-away-from home, and good hospitality.
If you are looking at it, please don’t hesitate to book, and I am sure you won’t regret.
I hope you will enjoy your time in Venice and Roberto’s home as much as we did.
