Absolutely wonderful place! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Paola's beautiful home. She gave us very clear directions on how to arrive at her place which is SO important in Venice. She also met us at the dock to lead us back to the apartment. The large apartment is close to the main square and the Water Bus which takes you to all the other areas. You can walk to restaurants and the grocery store is about 8-10 minutes away. The kitchen is amply equipped as well. We made some meals at home with all the fresh and delicious produce and ingredients from the markets. Good gluten free.market close by too! Beds are comfy and plenty of room for all six of us who stayed there. Highly recommend!
