Wonderful, engaged hosts at this hip and relaxing "Petite Private Cottage." Easy walking and biking (with free, provided bikes) to wherever you want to go in Venice. High-quality shampoo, soap, and lotion, as well as excellent coffee and tea provided. Separate guest house includes a record player and CD player - with tons of vinyl and CD selections - and an audio jack to plug in your phone, as well as TV and DVD player and a selection of magazines, books, and games. The outdoor spaces complement the cottage with comfortable outdoor furniture and a fire pit, which was useful during the cold snap we stayed through. The hosts provided a personalized list of restaurants and activities and were highly available for questions and support. Parking on the street is a snap. Separate entrance(s) - front and back - were convenient. And we did "grab a beer from the outdoor fridge" - a very welcome offering to end a long day of travel from the east coast. Note that the cottage is, indeed, petite - it was perfectly comfortable for the two of us and we had no issues. Good getaway for couples.
