We stayed in this apartment for 2 weeks and it was fabulous - clean, well equipped and in a great area of Venice. We loved the local feel of the neighbourhood and ate at many of the local bars and restaurants. It isn't too far to get into the centre as Venice is so small. Massimo is really friendly and helpful. He took us on a boat ride around the area and was there to answer any questions we had. It makes a huge difference when the host is on hand and is friendly. We loved this apartment and it actually looks much better than in the photos, we'll be back!
