The location was convenient by foot to Rialto bridge, Ca'Doro watertaxi stop, train station, restaurants & shops. His place was professionally clean, beautifully decorated, well equipped kitchen, clean bathroom, & had a comfortable mattress.
We really appreciated that Paolo & his brother were welcoming. Their directions to the apartment were accurate & ready to follow. There was a booklet with house rules, maps & tips about the house & area. Paolo's brother was very kind & patient to wait for 2 hours for our arrival since we took the wrong watertaxi from the train station. Paolo communicated very well when we had questions & he was extremely accommodating. He even offered to take care of the disposal of our luggage we needed to leave behind. He definitely went out of his way with his kindness.
His place & neighborhood was very safe & quiet. A perfect place to rest during siesta & to refresh after a day of exploring Venezia. I felt it was better than staying at a hotel.
