The space Upon entering the Venice room one has the feeling of being directly on a side street of the Canal Grande due to the full wall mural complete with gondola and gondolier. The bed is outfitted with new Serta posturepedic mattresses and is very comfortable. A small closet is available and fold out tables for guests bags or personal items are provided. If you enjoy the evening sun this is a good choice. Venetian masks, Venetian plaster and fixtures with crystal beads complete the Italian look. Guest access Guests have access to all areas of the house including the patio garden next to the Garden room, second floor deck, salon and dining room. The kitchen is restricted. During your stay I love interacting with my guests and will gladly show them around town go out to dinner with them or just share a glass of wine, however I also respect their wish for privacy and or solitude. As a Superhost since 2017, I will everything in my power to make their stay comfortable, clean, and memorable. Other things to note The Venice room is very quiet and its doors open out into the large hallway so noise is usually not an issue, however there is a small WC with a chain pull toilet next to this room that can be loud when activated. Guests should be aware that the main bath is shared if there are other guests. The bath/shower has a telephone faucet and takes some getting used to. If all rooms are occupied some bath articles may be kept in the guests room where there is adequate place for hanging damp towels and placing personal articles. Otherwise, there are built in cabinets and drawers in the bathroom as well as towel rods where guests may keep their personal care products. All mattresses and pillows were bought brand new before the opening in 2017. They are covered with mattress and pillow protectors against bedbugs. The linens and blankets are laundered with skin sensitive detergent. A continental breakfast of biscuits or rolls and/or cinnamon rolls are offered or cereals if preferred, with coffee,tea and juice. Full sit-down warm breakfasts are available for an additional $8.50 per person. guests can choose from a variety of options such as scrambled eggs with bacon and rolls or biscuits, Belgian waffle served with fruit, or French toast served with fruit for example. Organically grown foods(fruit, honey, maple syrup, some dairy products and always organic eggs are used as available). Coffee is freshly ground in the morning and can be combined with organic decaf to produce a half calf blend. Specialties served with breakfast include Amana Colony apple butter and Nutella. Last but not least, as mentioned in the description there are cats on the property but they are contained in areas away from guests. They are usually very quiet but an occasional meow or patter of paws on the floor or scratching on doors/walls may not be totally unavoidable. We are bicyclist and pet friendly.
