Wonderful location in central Venice, accessible to all the famous places. With the aid of the map available from parent hotel, Palazzo Paruta, getting around without a guide is pretty simple. Very modest furnishings, but generally adequate. But BE CAREFUL...Don't plug in your phone or computer to recharge without a current converter (220V to 110V) and correct plugs !! Good news is that they are available for purchase for about 55 Euros for the required 2 connecting pieces (located 1 upstairs, the other downstairs) at the store called RATTI, close enough to walk to easily. The cost of the rental is a little steep comparably, but OK for 2 couples or a family of 4-5. And the location really is convenient, not far at all from the Grand Canal.
