Our stay at Paola's place was absolutely wonderful. She was an amazing host for people that are traveling to Venice for the first time. She greeted us to show us around the apartment, as well as talk to us about everything we needed to know about our stay, which was great for being in a different country. She helped us set up water taxis for arrival and departure, (which was very helpful for not speaking the language) and had an entire book of recommendations for people that were coming to the area for the first time. The apartment was super clean, very spacious, and had everything you would need for a great stay. Her place was in a perfect location to walk to the square, and all of the bars and restaurants. I would highly recommend a stay at Paola's place for anyone traveling to Venice! Ciao!
