The location of this B&B was excellent. It was a relatively short walk to the main square but just away enough to get away from the crowds and experience an authentic feeling Venice. The neighborhood was actually recommended by guidebooks to simply walk around in because of its charm. Marco and Alice were friendly and hospitable. They checked in with us and were helpful with their recommendation and suggestions. Marco suggested some places to eat, one restaurant of which turned out to be the best meal of our time in Venice. Alice made us cappuccino one morning and showed us how Italian cappuccino is made by hand! The quiet canal was wonderful to return to each night and we enjoyed our view. The room itself was lovely and charming. It had a slightly vintage look with a lot of character. One thing that surprised us were the thin Venetian towels. They almost looked like large dinner napkins, however, they were surprisingly absorbent and at the end we wondered where we could buy towels like that. The bathroom is on the smaller side but it worked for us. The B&B is located up 4 flights of stairs and you do have to cross a couple bridges with your stuff as most likely you will anywhere in Venice so pack lightly. All in all it was an enjoyable stay and my husband and I would stay there again. Two thumbs up!
