Casa Alma is wonderful. It is beautifully decorated and very well equipped--a/c in all the rooms, comfortable beds, great wifi, all the kitchen equipment one might need during a short stay. The neighborhood is quiet, well away from the throngs of tourists, but not far from St. Mark's Square. We got lost many times, but that's part of the charm of Venice. Marika is a wonderful hostess-- very gracious and full of useful information. We loved our stay at Casa Alma!
