We had a wonderful time in Venice staying at the Residenza degli Angeli! The owners gave us clear instructions for arrival--from airport, take bus to Piazzala Roma. Then, call them before taking vaporetto and they would meet us at San Silvestro stop. Luckily, the airport has a phone card vending machine!

Everything worked very smoothly. Even though it was almost midnight, Mario met us at the vaporetto stop and escorted us to the B&B. He made sure to point out landmarks along the way, as it is SO easy to get lost in Venice. But, that's the fun of it!

The first night we had a room with shared bath. This was not an inconvenience, as only 2 rooms share the bath. It's just a few steps from the room, and the hall lights are motion-sensitive and come on automatically. The second and third nights we stayed in the upstairs room with private bath.

Both rooms were very nice, clean, and had windows opening to the quiet residential street outside. Each room had a small TV, so we watched some Italian late-night shows.

Mario came early every morning to set up breakfast downstairs. Coffee, juice, croissants, and yogurt--just fine to start the day!

We truly enjoyed our stay here, and recommend this place to anyone! The price was very reasonable (especially for a great location in Venice), and the experience was worth so much more!

We stayed in the Residenza degli Angeli between Christmas and New Years. We were instructed to ring Mario on arrival into Venice. We arrived later than expected, he gave us very clear instructions as to which waterbus to get and we were met at the stop by his wife Esmerelda.

The Residenza is a very short walk from this stop. Esmerelda was extremely helpful and gave us clear instructions as we walked so that we would be well orientated for our short stay.

Despite the late hour, Esmerelda gave us a map of the immediate area and sat us down to explain where to find the main attractions, everywhere is within walking distance. She also highlighted some good authentic restaurants nearby where we would not be ripped off. We took her advice and it was worth it.

The Residenza is very homely. Our room was lovely and clean, decorated with nice Venetian style furniture. It was the smallest room in the Residenza but was certainly not cramped. There was a good air conditioning/ heating unit. The breakfast was adecute.

All in all, excellent value for an expensive city. Would stay there again.

An incredible value. The room was small but enjoyable and completely adequate since you should spend most of your time "exploring" Venice. We decide to spend some time in found the bed very comfortable and awoke refreshed each morning.

The hospitality shown by the owners was beyond expectations. The breakfast conversation was enjoyable, the guidance helpful (they understood we were on a budget and were concerned we receive good value when eating, etc.) and not at all overbearing. What a joy!

Searched online for weeks with no luck and then this place seemed to magically drop out of the sky... The "Residence of the Angels" was beyond our expectations and exactly what we wanted -- beautiful room, excellent location (near the Ponte Rialto) in an adorable neighborhood, with plenty of character and best of all an endearing and gracious hostess. From the moment Esmerelda met us at the vaparetto stop she was the perfect balance of warm, helpful and efficient, giving us great information and insider tips that really helped maximize our one night stay in Venice. She was also more than happy to let us leave our bags there the next day. Wish we could have stayed longer, and will definitely consider this our future home in heavenly Venice.
