Just like all the previous reviews.... This 13th century mansion is amazing. the location is out of this world - around the corner from the water bus + on the canal so every morning and night you are greeted by gondola singers (amazing) + church bells out side your windows. There are 4 rooms total (only 1 room - the loft attached to the library does not have air conditioning). Rita greeted us and had the kitchen stocked to get us by for the morning. Coffee + Tea + melba toast + jam (wonderful). Should we ever be so lucky to return during the Venice Biennale I would absolutely stay here again. There are multiple levels of stairs for entering //exiting // getting to this location so please keep this in mind when booking for large families of all ages. Love love this place and it is incredibly gorgeous!
