Paolo was perfect in his description of the apartment and his Dad was fantastic at check-in. We were given a quick tour and a few local suggestions and then we were off to explore. The apartment is a short walk to San Marco and Rialto -- the two main hot spots. The neighborhood is loaded with great shops, restaurants, and a grocery store. The value and character of the apartment is completely worth it in comparison to hotels in the same area. I highly recommend Paolo and this apartment, it was one my best Airbnb experiences.
