Monica's place is a very central bed and breakfast close to the major sites. It is a little far away from the train station given the extortionate prices of water taxis, but it's worth it for the location.
Our room was quite large and aesthetically very beautiful. This is one of those rooms that is even nicer than the photos. Notwithstanding that the balcony, whilst still amazing, was smaller than I expected.
We were welcomed by Monica's partner who was very friendly and their housekeeper who was equally friendly and very helpful.
I try to think of a few negatives to put in these reviews but I really can't think of anything substantial. I'd challenge anyone to find a nicer place for the money in Venice.
