We had a wonderful stay at Maurizio's home. The location was just perfect. It is away from the main tourist areas and therefore lovely and quiet and peaceful - but also not too dead either... It's a very easy walk to any of the main tourist attractions around Venice & there are also water busses located a couple of steps away that will take you to any of the other Islands (like Burano/Murano) as well as directly to the airport, which was extremely convenient. There are also a number of great restaurants just around the corner.
The room itself was perfect, lovely and clean and comfortable. Nice big double bed and plenty of space in the room itself. The fan was also helpful although we didn't really need it much but it was a nice big fan that would be appreciated in the hotter months. The bathroom was also spotless with a nice shower (with very good water pressure).
Check in was also very easy and we had no trouble finding the place at all.
There is also a lovely little coffee/tea area downstairs, with a fridge which was a wonderful touch... we definitely enjoyed that extra amenity.
I couldn't recommend this place enough. I would definitely stay here again.
