I stayed at Massimo's apartment with my family. The apartment is very classy and beautifully done up. it has 2 large bedrooms, a good sized living area and a well equipped kitchen. All basic amenities were provided in the apartment. However, as it is for all places in Venice, this apartment too is around 15 minutes walk from the Train station. so if you are traveling with luggage, it's better to take a porter at the station else you would have to cross these steps bridges lifting the luggage by yourself!!!
we had an early morning train to Milano and Massimo was kind enough to arrange for a porter at 6 in the morning!!! he even offered to drop us by his boat which was very kind of him!!!
all in all a good stay!!!
