Nothing to really dislike considering it’s a good price but be aware the apartment is up two flights of stairs as is common in Venice. Also beware of mosquitos as even on October as the weather was warm they were around. Paula provides spay etc if you ask but best to come prepared and keep the windows shut at night. No air con but fans in the rooms.

The B&B is in an excellent and safe location for San Marco Piazza and to waterbus stops on the lagoon. Only 5 minutes walk. About 10 minutes walk is the Rialto. The area is quiet but has lots of shops and restaurants. Feels like you are living as a local. Paula, the host, is very welcoming and was there when I checked in after 13.00 hours. The apartment is dark but very clean. It has a small courtyard with lovely plants. Good Italian coffee is served at breakfast from 8 to 10. I stayed for a week. Despite my reservations about a shared bathroom this was not a problem. There was hot water for showering, a bidet and all was clean. I am an early riser and so it was fine. There are 3 rooms for guests and it’s popular so be aware of demand for bathroom. As a solo traveller it was good to chat to other guests over breakfast. Paula was able to give good advice about visits and restaurants etc. she speaks French, Italian and English. The bed was firm but there were clean white sheets and towels. Good wifi. There is a cat called Houdini who comes in and out of the apartment which I enjoyed but some may not. I could return during the day and have a shower as it was hot. I enjoyed experiencing a more authentic stay. I had a haircut at the hairdressers at the end of the alley and while expensive (It’s Venice) it was very good. There is a launderette next door to the hairdressers. Easy walk to Campo S. Maria Formosa which has restaurants and fruit and veg stalls. Also off an alley there is the bookshop Liberia Aqua Alta. As well as the usual activities I would recommend the food tour in the Rialto market and San Polo area. Find it on Get Your Guide. Also buy a water boat ticket for the duration of your stay. A great way to get around Venice and have a rest from walking.

The communal bathroom was not ideal in the mornings, having to wait for your turn to use the facilities.

The location was ideal for exploring Venice. The room was clean and tidy.

I live in a warm place, I am not used to cold weather, March nights and mornings in ice are Venice are chilly and at the B&B I was very cold. I would have had a ball in the good season but Spring was not in my comfort zone.

The B&B is very close to San Marco but it is on a side street so it is very quiet. There is a terrace where it must be nice to have breakfast and dine in the good season. My room was cheerful and well kept.

The breakfast was very basic and meagre, much less generous than we experienced in all the other places we stayed in Italy. While the room was large, it was also very basic.

The room was large and comfortable which can't be taken for granted in many of the B&Bs we have used in historic areas.

Bathroom sharing is a big issue. The breakfast was OK could be a lot better. There was a kettle and tea bags in the dining area, but no cups in the rooms. Also the pillows were too big and hard for us.

Excellent location. Very clean. Very close to St Mark's square. Quite and warm rooms. Helpful landlady. Just nearby a few restaurants and take away outlets with various tasty foods.

The shared bathroom was often busy and the shower situation wasn't so great.

Good place to stay and comfortable. As a solo traveler, I enjoyed connecting with people from all over.

Everything was fine

Friendliness, willingness to please

It was a little difficult for our room of 4 people to share the hall bathroom with 3 other people because we all seemed to need the bathroom at the same time.

It was an exceptional location! It was so hot while we were in Venice and she added an AC unit to our room which made it cool and perfect in our room.

The location was great. We lived the decoration too

Stayed in June 2022

The location was a bit noisy (the price of convenience to the old city), and the room was a bit hot (again not the owners fault!).

The owner and her cat were lovely and the location was very convenient.

Great location and good value

The owner of the rooms is a nice lady, and she has a nice cat as well. There is a terrace, where we could drink a glass of wine evenings at a candle.

We had an amazing stay in Venice and our host was fabulous. We arrived late but she was there to welcome us . The rooms were big, cozy and clean. We felt like we were at our home rather than in hotel. She helped us with the information we were lacking and it made our trip much easier. See you next time; until then only good memories!!

Comfortable

They should be more specific that you are sharing a someone else’s apartment that has 3 rooms and one bathroom. The owner of the apartment lives there and you don’t feel comfortable there. The breakfast is really simple (bread, butter, jam, coffee and normal milk) she said in her place she serves “Italian breakfast” so if you need something else better ask before. She is not friendly and can’t speak English fluently.

The location is really good and the place is very clean.
