Paolo's place is great, its located is a nice quite and authentic part of Venice which has a great lively atmosphere in the evening. The apartment was really nice and had everything we needed, such as a coffee machine, iron, hairdryer, washing machine and most importantly a great air con system! There were two big bedrooms and nice bathroom big enough to share.
Paolo was a great host, he came to meet us at the station and took us to the apartment, explaining everything as we walked through Venice. It was only 10 minutes walk from the main station and only two bridges to cross over. Paolo also gave us great advice for dinner, supermarkets, etc. and he responded very quickly when we had a problem with the hot water.
I would highly recommend Paolo's apartment for a short stay in Venice, particularly because the area is so authentic and gives you the real Venice experience.
