When I was told that I had to fly to Venice for work, I thought "great!", when I was told that I would be staying at a B&B, I thought "crap!!". When we Brits stay at a B&B in the UK, you pretty much welcomed in to someone house who has a few rooms available to rent out, and you can all use the first floor toilet!!!||I arrived at Mezzosale, very late at night, due to re-routed and delayed flight, and they had already closed!!, But the two owners had stayed back to check me in.After a very brief checking of passport formalities, I was shown to my room. A very modern, bright while corridor with wooden floors lead to a lift, up to the first floor the theme continued, hotel like pass cards let me enter my room, one the owners who was with me, showed me how to use the electric shutters the heating system and then left me to settle.||The room was clean with white walls and comfortable double bed, a very modern up to date bathroom, to be completely truthful I have stayed in some hotel that are not as well furnished as this B&B was. The view from my room looked onto the Accademia, very picturesque and even though we on the main road there was hardly any traffic.||So in summary, I enjoyed my time here in Venice and the Mezzosale just made it better.
