Massimo was fantastic. We loved staying at his place. The location was perfect, just a little bit quieter than the centre of Venice, but only a 6-9 minute walk to main tourist attractions. Massimo recommended a few of his local restaurants and they were amazing. It's been some of our favourite food while travellling round Italy. The apartment is very basic, with aircon and easy to get to from the Boat Bus. Massimo's directions were spot on and he kept in touch with us the whole journey. I would definitely recommend his place to our friends and family and we would stay with him again if we are lucky enough to go back to Venice.
