Massimo is a wonderful host! He sent directions to us before our arrival, gave us great tips when we arrived, printed our boarding passes during our stay, and was, in general, a kind and gracious host.

As for the aparment: It is in a great location, as it is not a long walk after arriving, which makes getting on and off Venice easy. It is also quite close to Rialto and St. Mark's. Perhaps best of all, though, it is in a quiet neighborhood with a bakery nearby. You have a lovely little view of a canal, and the apartment has everything you need: Air conditioning, WiFi, extra pillows, etc. The pictures just don't convey how great it is.
