It's been already my 7 or 8 visit to Venice, so i dare to say that i know the city pretty well. I can recommend Ca' della Scimmia without any doubt. You'll get very good quality for a more than fair price. The location is perfect - close to Rialto, mercato, close to San Polo, the vaporetto stop is 30 sec away. For me personally is cruciall to have enough place in a hotel or appt. It's difficult to find a spacious room in Venice, especially in the center, usually hotels are offering 20 sq m for the outrageous prices. In this respect Ca' della Scimmia is a pleasant exception - rooms are so spacious that you can easily invite friends for dinner:) and you'll find everything necessary to cook this dinner-kitchen is fully equiped. Knowing that travellers also like to hear about disadvantages, here is the only one i can think of - the isolation of the rooms is not excellent. Let's say...the travelling romantic couples should be aware of that:)) anyhow i would recommend the place to anyone. Another detail to add - my local Venetian friends were also pleasantly surprised with Ca' della Scimmia, i guess this speaks for itself!
