I very much enjoyed staying at Francesca's B&B Al Canal Venice. Francesca was very inviting and helpful from the moment we reserved the room. She gave us instructions about how to get there from the airport and recommended the ACTV multiple day pass for land and water transportation which was great. Once we arrived, she gave us an overview of Venice with a map and was available during our stay if we had any questions. She served us a continental breakfast with croissants, toast, jam, coffee and juice. Her place is located on Guidecca island just off the main island of Venice. I loved that it was removed from the busy main island. The neighborhood was quiet. It was very easy to catch a water bus (vaporetto) and travel between the islands. Venice was very beautiful. I would recommend Francesca's place to anyone planning to visit Venice. I would stay there again.
