I liked the place, and I liked Alfonso, the owner. The area was very nice, quiet and residential, and an easy vaporetta ride to anywhere in Venice

Hôtel situé dans un endroit très calme et agréable. Alphonso est toujours là en cas de questions et demandes.
La chambre était propre à notre arrivée.
Petit moins pour les draps jetables et pour le petit déjeuner relativement pauvre peu qualitatif.
The hotel is real Italian and far away from the crowds on the small Island of St. Elena but easily accessible by Water Bus or footpaths. Lots of the Water busses call there and we bought a 7 day pass which was very worth doing because we used it several times a day visiting lots of Islands. There is no reception but Alfonso is just a call, email or text away. Breakfast is ample, simple continental for us to prepare ourselves but we are Coeliac and everything was gluten free as we requested. There are plenty of places to eat at all prices. The rooms were bigger than expected, the bed room was comfortable. There was a sofa, microwave, small sink and table and chairs in the second room with a kettle and refrigerator adjoining. The bathroom included a shower, WC, bidet and basin. There was hot water to all taps.

Chambre agréable, très calme.
Trois porte avant la chambre , donc pas de bruit de rue . Pour autant l'endroit es très calme. Très bien dormi sous le ventilateur
The B&B was in the perfect location, under a mile away from the center of town. It was nice to stay in a quieter area as it allowed my husband and I to explore more of the surrounding area. The room was great, had everything we needed for our 3 day stay. Just wishful for some air conditioning in the room for our next trip. So humid in July!
The room met the requiments and matched expectations, the owner was freindly and helpful. Perfect location and easy to find- would recommend this to others.
Hotel très calme et très bien situé, avec une très grande disponibilité des interlocuteurs.

Apartment and area ok , breakfast and wifi poor
Place was ok as was the area. Breakfast wasn't good enough for a couple considering it is a b & b. Wifi poor also. Good point is its walkable to all the main sights .
The owner is very friendly and helpful. The room had a comfortable bed and really great celing fan to keep it cool. We also enjoyed the quiet area where it is located. Our only dislikes were the disposable towels, low quality sheets (almoat paper-like) and the many notes and reminders placed throughout the room. They could be condensed to 1 check in form. An additional note, the room comes with breakfast which is prepackaged croissants and crackers. Tea and coffee provided with a kettle.
All in all, good stay in a nice little property.
It's not your typical B&B. Being an American it wasn't what I expected. But it was still pretty good.
They live some croissants in the room with some coffee for breakfast.
Alfonzo was really nice and friendly!
The room is perfect for one/two people and no more.
It was extremely hard to find, but also for some reason I didn't get the map Alfonzo had sent me to get there.
The locals have no idea on where any hotels are, just the area they would be in so don't really count on them.
But once I found it it was really easy to find again!
Great quiet neighborhood!
Defiantly would stay again!
il proprietario ci parla di biglietti per navigare da una fermata all'altra a tariffe inesistenti,(7eur andata/ritorno, 2eur per una fermata..)dovrebbe aggiornarsi. all'arrivo non troviamo caffe' quindi lo chiediamo, ce ne offre per due giorni(soggiorno di quattro giorni),stesso discorso per le paste confezionate, dopo due giorni,stanchi di dover chiedere tutti i giorni la colazione,facciamo spesa e compriamo tutto il necessario per quattro giorni di colazione(nonostante fosse inclusa nel prezzo). fornelli chiusi a chiave,possibilità di cucinare al prezzo modico di 25eur al giorno,almenoche' non ci si accontenti di un'uovo o patate cotte nel bollitore. Nonostante tutto la camera è piena di opere d'arte, ma esaminate bene: una è appesa al contrario, forse per dare un gusto un po' avanguardista al tragico soggiorno. anche qualche segnale di divieto fumo è appeso al contrario,(abbasso il fumo). novità assoluta:infissi con sopra le scritte del proprietario contenenti le complesse indicazioni necessarie per aprire o chiudere. si contano svariate decine di bigliettini appesi sparsi in tutta la camera(esempio:non buttare oggetti strani nel water). se avete bisogno di fare pulizie ricordatevi che la paletta e la scopa sono appese all'altezza del tavolo dove mangerete l'uovo. a parte questo tutto ok!

Niet-toeristisch rustig verblijf
Bezoek aan de Biennale was het doel van mijn verblijf. De BB lag vlak bij de Biennale
in een rustige buurt.Was 's avonds,bij aankomst, lastig te vinden.Vriendelijke en
behulpzame mensen.Ik was alleen; voor 2 mensen zou de ruimte wat aan de krappe kant zijn.Prima douche! Verwacht een eenvoudige ruimte, dan valt alles mee.

It was a quiet area at St Elena's neighbourhood in Venice. The B&B had a good wifi and a nice spacious bathroom. The contact with the owner was efficient. There is a little kitchen corner with a kettle in the room. The breakfast that was included was rather meagre: instant coffee, expired teabags, supermarket wrapped croissants. Fortunately there were cafeterias (Vecia Gina and others) nearby where to start the morning. It was the end of October, the room was rather cool and damp. The heating was not on in the night. When I asked to adjust the heating according to the outside temperature, it was an issue of extra effort but was fortunately resolved and the temperature remained on tolerable level in the next few days. Regarding the price – I would expect better conditions in terms of the heating and breakfast. The room was full of marker written notes how to use the space and its tools – it was like an interesting piece of conceptual art.
Very clean apartment.Very close to the Biennal.
Poor breakfast, we had the breakfast at Bar Vincent situated in the same block and recommended by the B&B itself.
WiFi was very good.
Observe that owner need separate mail telling arrival time
and passport information in advance.
