The main reason I chose this B&B was location because it was so close to the train station, and it didn't disappoint. With Venician transport only by boat or foot, this was extremely cost effective and convenient; a huge bonus, in not having to cart my luggage for miles (especially in the rain). When you 1st get to a place you're unfamiliar with, you don't want to be traipsing around lost, with luggage, and with Venice not too big, walking to the main attractions was not difficult or too time consuming. 15 minutes (easy and interesting walk) to the Rialto Bridge and 25 minutes to San Marco Square; so choose location to transport over location to sights. Instructions to the appartment were easy to follow, and there were only 2 (wide) flights of stairs to climb. Also
being down a little lane way, noise factor - zero; (another important factor in my decision to choose this B&B).
Alessandro was the perfect host. He is extremely generous with his time and information on Venice and dining out. Nothing was too much trouble. The room and amenities were very clean and after traveling around Italy for 5 weeks, the little personal touches and luxeries were very much appreciated. The bed was extremely comfortable with THE best pillows; a rarity in Italy! Egyptian Cotton sheets and the softest gown provided...heaven! Breakfast was way more than a gal can eat, but certainly set me in good stead for the day's adventures.
This is one B&B I would certainly recommend and go back to. Thank you Alessandro for your very warm welcome and kindness!
