Why people love it
- Nicola, the host. He is named in most reviews for tips, a warm welcome and being reachable even when he could not meet guests in person.
- Quiet and private. With only four rooms, guests describe a homey, private atmosphere on a very quiet street.
- Location. Guests say it is 10 to 15 minutes' walk from San Marco and close to a vaporetto stop with a route to the airport.
- Kitchen. A shared kitchen is available to the four rentals to prepare breakfast, according to a May 2026 guest.
- Value. Reviewers call it good value for a main-island stay.
The worst thing guests say
Small rooms and a basic breakfast. An August 2026 guest found the rooms small and the breakfast made of processed products. Others in 2024 and 2025 describe rooms as spacious but small, and the host was sometimes not on site. A 2020 reviewer could not reach anyone by phone.
Insider tips
- Message Nicola ahead, since he is not always on site.
- Breakfast is simple, and a shared kitchen is available.
- It is a 10 to 15 minute walk to San Marco.
Who it's for: couples and solo travelers who want a quiet, homey base with a helpful host.
Skip it if you want a staffed front desk or a full breakfast.
