The place is just as described with some struggle for taller people. The area where is located is a 15 minutes walk from Piazza San Marco. That is a good thing, because it is peaceful and away from the tourists hordes. There is a supermarket very near. We visited in February and we had to use the extra blankets as it was a bit too cold inside for us and the room's radiator was turned off. (18-19 Celsius)
