Al's Place is amazing with the most wonderful view of the city from atop the roof top deck. True, there are a few flights of stairs to access the home, but it puts you high atop the city. We traveled with only book bags, so it made it super easy. The place has a loft type feel, and may not be right for people with mobility issues. Al provided Water, Tea, Coffee and the small fridge and microwave were perfect when needed. Such a short walk from all the action in San Marco Plaza as well as an easy commute to other destinations. It was an easy walk from the train station (about half an hour) or an even easier commute on a Vapreto from the train station.
