We loved this little house! For us this is a perfect location - quiet, but just steps to all the sights of Castello and about 4 minutes (with luggage) to the Arsenale water bus stop. Being able to just roll our luggage inside on the ground floor after a long transit was very welcome indeed.
Now, this is not a sleek and modern house - this is a piece of Venice itself that has character - and all of it works and it is a very cozy and comfortable place.
The hot water and heating (in winter) was plentiful, the kitchen very nicely laid out and the washing machine was easy to figure out. The living room was very nice place to relax in after a day of sightseeing.
The two bedrooms upstairs were well appointed and comfortable, and the bathroom in between was clean and bright, and the shower worked very well. The top level bathroom was a bonus and the altana up top was a glorious treat.
Paolo was a good host and communicated very well with us. He had someone meet us at the Arsenale stop, and she took her time to show us all the workings of the flat.
