Massimo was a lovely host. He greeted us promptly as we arrived, assisting us with our luggage. From there he showed us the apartment and everything that was available for our stay. Massimo had wonderful restaurant recommendations where you get the most for food for the euro value. He was also very kind and helpful with any questions we had while touring Venice. I would highly recommend staying at Massimos if you are looking for a place to get a bit away from the ruckus of Venice tourists. There is a restaurant right outside of the apartment and a super market two minutes away for convenience. Everything is walkable!
