Despite Venice being quite a difficult city to navigate we found the apartment very easily thanks to Paolo's very detailed instructions. Previous to us arriving Paolo was excellent at communicating with us answering our questions promptly, etc. We were let into the apartment by Cristina who was very warm and friendly. she explained everything to us well. the apartment was a bit smaller than expected, but still very comfortable and a perfect size for 3-4 people. everything was clean and kitchen was well stocked with pots, utensils, etc. the sheets and towels looked professionally cleaned. location wise the apartment is well placed to many sites. we were in town for the venice biennale and were able to walk there in 40mins. the apartment is well placed down a quiet side street just off the main drag so no street noise could be heard. on our first night we walked 5mins to the jewish quarter where we found some cute local bars and restaurants along the canals. i definitely would stay again.
