Giulio's place was very conveniently located to a water boat stop that turned every day plans into magical adventures through the grand canal. Communication with Giulio was great, including being very transparent about the Italy laws around collecting personal data of every guest. The home was more than enough, and very cozy, for four adults. Something to note is that the hot water in the shower is a little tricky! Make sure to follow Giulio's advice on how to get it to work. He also gave us recommendations on places to eat. We ended up at Rossopomodoro (twice) because of his suggestion. Overall, if you want a place that is an easy get-away from the chaos of the touristy areas yet still easily accessible to all the landmark's, Giulio's place is a great find.
The guests before us left him a gift, and it was easy to see why as soon as we checked in. :)
Looking forward to our next trip to Venice!
