Maddalena's and Brian's place is a stylish and welcoming place that's conveniently located, easy to find and tastefully furnished. The minimalistic and clean style of this apartment is a much appreciated contrast in a city full of velvet cushions and golden chandeliers. Rooms are clean, tidy and spacious and the kitchen is well-equipped. I really coulnd't ask for more. There's even a tasteful selection of art & architecture books plus lots of CDs and DVDs. You'll have to bring your own playback device, though. Don't know why any traveler in Venice would need this, though :) All in all, it's one of the best accomodations I've had so far. Easy recommendation!
