If you are looking for 5 star modern luxury then this isn't the hotel for you, but if you are looking to step into a beautiful, old fashioned, welcoming, Italian Villa style hotel then this is perfect. It was for us. Perfectly located, a 5 minute walk from the bus stop (and maybe 10 from the beach), in a peaceful residential area, a stones throw from the main street and overlooking a small canal. The tranquility was the first thing that hit us, especially after a day in the madness of Venice. Our private balcony wrapped around the bedroom and offered beautiful views. The high ceilings and French doors made it cool. The bedroom was basic but spotless and cleaned beautifully each day. Breakfast was included - again, basic (buffet style), but included fresh breads, eggs, fruit, yoghurts (and more) lovely coffee. Would HIGHLY recommend.
