Massimo is a wonderful host. He kept in touch with us from a day before till we reached Venice. He helped carry our luggage up to his apartment and gave us a map and directions. The kitchen had tea, coffee and milk for us to use. And washing detergent. His apartment is in a charming part of Venice and is within walking distance of the main square. There are many charming cafés and shops all around. It has all the amenities to house 4 people comfortably. He was available for any questions and kindly booked a water taxi to take us to the airport. I certainly recommend his apartment to people visiting Venice.
