Hotel Guerrato was only a 1 minute walk from the Rialto Mercato vaporetto stop, (for line 1) 2 minutes from the Rialto Bridge, and only a 10 to 15 minute walk to Piazza San Marco. It's location was perfect. A very friendly and helpful staff greeted us each day, breakfast was great, with a good selection of food, including fresh cut up fruit daily! Our only minor complaint would be that there were no racks or tables on which to set our suitcases. We had to lay them on the floor making it a little awkward to use. But the AC worked great. As a one star rated hotel, there was no TV (didn't need it), and the towels were a little flat, but they were clean, and the shower stall was enclosed, so no water sprayed out onto the floor. We were given fresh bottled water each day, and the room was quiet. We felt it was still somewhat expensive, however we were in Venice proper, not out in Mestre, and compared to the prices of other hotels, Hotel Guerrato was acceptable!
