Paolo warmly welcomed us at the Vaporetto stop which is only 10 minutes walk to the apartment. He introduced us to some of the restaurants and shops in the area on the way there, and could not have been more helpful.

The apartment is neat, clean and well equipped. In particular, it is extremely peaceful, and situated conveniently in what for us was a delightful area of Venice. Leaving the apartment, you walk along the short private passage to the fondamenta that runs alongside the little canal.

We greatly enjoyed our stay and would unhesitatingly recommend the apartment to any couple wanting to explore Venice and to be away from the main tourist areas. There are plenty of restaurants, cafes and shops nearby, including a delightful fruit and vegetable barge.
