Corte Loredan

From the moment we arrived at Corte Loredan we felt welcome. Frank does a great job at running his accommodations in Venice. Before even reaching Venice, he sent us an email with directions on how to get to Corte Loredan. The directions were very clear but of course we jumped the gun and turned at the very first bridge we saw. This is important to know that in Venice there are about 400 bridges and they all seem important or look like they lead to where you need to go. Pay attention to the names and your map/​directions/​instructions. Once we arrived (a 10 min walk from the train station), we sat down with Frank for a chat and to sign the paperwork. Then he showed us our room: a large suite with flat screen tv, queen and twin bed, mini fridge, and private bathroom.
The room was clean and spacious. There was a safe and free wifi. There are no screens on the windows. We didn’t have problems with mosquitos but one night a grasshopper had made its way into the room. It disappeared by morning. The bathroom was large and the shower was bigger than any other European shower I had seen before. One of the other features I enjoyed about the bathroom were the heated towel racks. I would have loved them even more in the winter. Total luxury!
The location was very good despite Cannaregio being a little more quiet and residential. It was very close to the bars, restaurants, and busy area on the way to Ca’ d’Oro.
