Attilio is an excellent host and arranged to have us met on our arrival in Venice, then taken to the apartment. His location is exceptional, being both convenient to sites and yet not in a neighborhood entirely given over to tourism - so one still finds 'local' supermarkets, cafes, etc. The decoration of the apartment is a charming mixture of antique and modern, and the views from the windows are just what one hopes for in Venice. We would be happy to return any time.
