Massimo's apartment is in the most central location of Venice St Marco, near Ponte Rialto. It's clean and spacious though like most Venetian properties you don't have much natural light.
Massimo was away but Giulia welcomed me and Vlad took care of the practicalities. A toilet and the light at the entrance broke in the middle of our 10-day stay but Vlad repaired them as soon as he could. Also there were two toilets so we weren't really bothered.
Massimo also left us two bottles of wine and some dessert. That was a very nice touch. Thanks a lot.
I've been to Venice a few times and this is probably the best value you can get from any Venetian apartments on the main islands.
