Paolo and Riccardo picked us up at the water bus and walked us to the lovely apartment. They were extremely kind and generous; they made sure that we felt comfortable with the area, and the amenities of the apartment. With the location on a canal, and the midcentury modern decor, we felt almost as if we were staying on a movie set! The location off the beaten path, but not at all far from the sights, was an essential part of our Venetian experience.
