First and formost Alessandro wa s gracious and attentive. He made feel welcomed and important. The B&B is just like the photos lovely and very clean. The neighborhood is located in the Grand canal area where the Rialto Mercado is just around the corner. Fresh fish, fruits and vegetables are of plenty every day. I was immersed in authentic Venetian culture. I woke up everyday to a delicious and wonderful breakfast served by Alessandro as if you were in a restaurant. Staying at this B&B made my stay in Venice magical.
