This home could not have been more perfect for our 9 day stay for venetian carnival. Large, spacious living room gives way to smaller more intimate sleeping quarters. We had plenty of room to get dressed in our very large 18th century gowns and the main hall made the perfect place to take photos before a night on the town.
Things you should know:
*Palazzo is located very near vaporetto stop. Perfect for access to rialto/san marco without having to stay near all the tourist stuff. Vaporetto is so easy to use!
*I enjoyed the restaurants near by and easy access to grocery store (practically across the "street") Has more of a neighborhood than a tourist feel. (we even found a favorite pasta restaurant that we revisted every other day!)
* very easy access to airport/mestre
*can get a little loud late at night as intoxicated revelers walk home. I imagine this isn't as much of an issue when it is not carnival but be warned if you are sensitive to noise. (Venice in general can be noisy because the sound carries easily)
*One of the beds is a pull out sofa. This didn't bother us but it important to note.
* there are really 3 bathrooms. One is small so its not listed but it was great to have!
* I would without a doubt stay here again should opportunity present itself. I loved it
*check in/out was a breeze. Alain was a fabulous host and i felt I could always get in touch with him if needed (but I did not)
*kitchen has basic supplies- (we cooked in a few meals) and bathrooms have lots of towels and such)
