Paolo was an incredibly gracious host. After missing a flight connection in Frankfurt, he waited patiently for us to arrive so he could guide us to the flat. In addition, he gave us a brief description of the area and stocked the refrigerator with wine, juices, water, and small bites to eat. The home is nicely furnished and was very comfortable. It was perfectly suited for a small family like ours and is nicely situated outside the touristy areas but still has access to the bus station, train station, multiple vaporetto stops, the Rialto Bridge and markets, and the Frari church, among multiple other sites. There are many local restaurants in the area as well that were well priced and authentic. We had a wonderful few days in Venice and would highly recommend the place to anyone.
