Our stay in Paolo's apartment was exceptional. The location was perfect, great to explore the city, but on a blissfully quiet back street that felt like a secret. The apartment is lovely and super clean, melding traditional old doors and windows with modern furniture. It has a lot of character and charm. But what made our stay truly fantastic was the extra care that Paolo and his wife put in to making their guests comfortable. Paolo's tour of the neighborhood with great restaurant recommendations, the cookies, coffee and jam left for us, the beautiful decor, and quality kitchen items all made us feel extremely lucky to have chosen Paolo's apartment for our stay in Venice.
