Giulio's place is in the charming area of Castello. We were able to walk around easily, and actually I found Castello one of the most charming areas of Venice. There is also a supermarket handily a minute away.
Giulio's place is also very charming, beamed ceilings and you can see other little rooftops in Venice from the window. It has a low ceiling in parts but we didn't mind because it added a little character.
Giulio was very welcoming and friendly, he had left us towels, tea and coffee for us to make in the morning and also some recommendations for the area, he was happy to answer any questions. Everything was easy to use and clean.
Had a lovely time in beautiful Venice! And thanks Giulio :)
