From the moment we arrived, we were met by charming and genuine Maurizio, who met us at the door. We were led inside a beautiful and historic building (with a canal out the back) that has been newly renovated and tastefully decorated in a luxurious and minimialistic way, still honouring the old wooden beams on the ceiling. The apartment had anything you could ask for- and the location is perfect. A few minutes away and you have the hustle and bustle of the Rialto Bridge, yet you are just off the beaten path. Maurizio gave us a wonderful restaurant recommendation and even looked up the boat departure to the airport for me. The whole stay was top notch. Superb. Thank you Maurizio, we'll be back!
