Paolo's flat was definitely one of our favorite places on Airbnb. Upon arrival, we were greeted kindly by Paolo and Ricardo who carried our things and led us on our short walk to the home. The pictures only show a part of how fantastic this place is, with its sunny canal views from the terrace, its venetian-style rooms, and its highly comfortable (and clean!) living spaces. It really shows great attention to detail. We found ourselves making use of the terrace and large window views whenever we could during our stay. Just be careful not to leave these open too long on warm days to avoid letting in mosquitoes as they do not have screens. In terms of the area, water taxis, shops, restaurants, and even San Marco square were only a 10-15 minute walk away through the narrow streets of Venice. Paolo was an amazing host, giving us recommendations on where to go for our stay and he even made a dinner reservation for us at a top place ahead of a busy saturday night. We cannot wait to stay here again!
