Venice was our first stop on a four week trip to Italy and Malta and we couldn't have picked a better apartment than Roberta and Paolo's beautiful room.
From the moment we stepped foot off the vaporetto into Venice where Paolo was waiting to greet us, until the moment we left, they both went above and beyond what you would expect from someone simply renting out a room.
Paolo talked to us for a good half an hour about Venice and all the main attractions and also directed us to a restaurant where we had one of the best meals in Italy! He was welcoming, warming and extremely helpful with any request.
The apartment is in a fantastic location, just minutes away from San Marco square and close to Rialto Bridge. The fridge and cupboards were stocked with coffee, milk, bread, pastries and spreads, and the small kitchen was perfect.
There are a lot of steep steps to get up to the room, but this is typical of most hotels in Venice so don't let it put you off. Overall, we would stay here again without question - a great apartment with wonderful hosts.
