Paola is a lovely and welcoming host. She met me at the water taxi stop and walked me to the apartment, along the way showing me places to eat, shop, and buy groceries. The apartment is small but charming, perfect for one person. The location is right in the heart of Venice...just 5 minutes' walk to Rialto Bridge or Piazza San Marco. Very easy to access from the airport; just take the Alilaguna orange to Rialto Bridge.
