My husband and I just returned from a wonderful stay in Venice. The Piccolo Vecellio is about a 15 minute walk from St. Mark's Square and the Rialto, and being just a bit off the beaten path made a huge difference in our experience in Venice. We loved staying in an area that felt like a real neighborhood as opposed to a tourist Disneyland, though it still had plenty of great nooks and crannies to explore (as well as some more "local" restaurants). The location is also convenient - just two stops by water bus from the airport.
We found Beata to be an impeccable and charming hostess; having breakfast with her in the mornings was always a highlight, and she is full of helpful advice and entertaining stories.
If you prefer lodging with a personal touch and like seeing a city from a local's perspective, the Piccolo Vecellio is for you.
