We loved meeting Paolo, her sister and mom at the waterbus stop in Venice! It was such a warm touch having her family there to greet us. The apartment was clean and cozy, and exactly how it looked in the pictures. Paolo left a bunch of tour guide books in the apartment and we spent the day walking around Venice from suggestions from one of the books. She also made numerous suggestions of things we may like to do in Venice. The bed was comfortable and the apartment was quiet which was perfect after a long day of sightseeing. I would definitely recommend Paola's place to anyone travelling to Venice. Thank you!
