Venice, Italy

We stayed at Liassidi Palace hotel.  Getting to the hotel was the main problem as we'd used Vaporetto (water bus) which stopped three bridges short of our destination.  That problem was eventually overcome and we found our delightful hidden away hotel which had its own jetty.  When we finished our stay we returned to the Tronchetto by a disabled access water taxi, which was the more sensible option.  At the hotel, a shower chair was provided for the shower, but there were no rails.  I could wheel to the shower, but the shower doors proved difficult.  The shower wasn’t big enough to fit me and close the doors properly, because I was sitting on the shower chair.  The toilet had a floor to ceiling vertical pole, but no side rail.  It took a lot of effort to transfer from the chair to the pole and swing my body around.  So not ideal, but we managed.
