We loved our stay in venice - and Raffaello's place was the perfect location. Only a few minutes walk from San Marco square - and San Zaccariah boat station ... yet very quiet and away from the crowds. A couple of great places to eat within less than a minutes walk was also a pleasant bonus.
We stayed in a lot of great places during our recent two-week stint in Italy - but Raffaello's was my favourite! Handy also, was the ability to wash and dry our travel clothes there.
Raffaello was a great host and responded quickly and with great suggestions via e-mail.
I cannot recommend his place highly enough. Awesome sanctuary!
