Paola's apartment is just as it appears on the website. It's very comfortable, clean and private, and with the shutters closed at night, very quiet too. The furnishings are delightful and we had everything we needed for a few days' stay. The location is very central being just near the Rialto markets, which meant that food and drink were only ever a few steps away. Cinzia gave us a lot of information which was useful, even if we only remembered half of it. There is a flight of narrow stairs leading to the apartment, but if you can't manage those, Venice is not the place to go. We even located a supermarket just over the Rialto bridge (which is 2 minutes walk away) and turn right. Thank you Paola and Cinzia - we had a great visit.
