Francesco and Rachelle were very helpful, and available during our stay in Venice. Testa d'Oro is set up very accommodating, including the ear plugs in the main bedroom, and all the little amenities that made it feel like home. The location, cleanliness and friendly accommodating attitude of your hosts, make dealing with a little noise from the busy Rialto Bridge area worth it. It's central location allow you to go anywhere in Venice in a 10-15 minute walk, other than the small islands which require a water taxi. We had a wonderful time, and just wished we had a little more time to stay. - The Gusman Family
