Maurizia and her husband were excellent hosts in a very old quiet part of Venice. They were helpful guiding us around and very thoughtful to my wife and I on our honeymoon. It is a separate apartment on the bottom of the house. I am 6'7" tall and had a bit of a tough time walking under the 600 year old beams, just fair warning to people my height. The location was prime, quiet except for the church bells, and great place to walk around.
