A charming, family-run B&B whose amenities include crisp white interiors, wood and stone floors, timber-beamed ceilings and spacious rooms, three of which come with sea-view balconies. Bathrooms tend to be on the small side, though the rooms are clean and the beds comfy. Another bonus: the property enjoys a prime location on a picturesque Giudecca piazza.
