Paolo's place is a great base to be if you are intending to travel to Venice. Only 5 mins walk to the train station and 2 stops to Venice. One only concern is the neighbour, during the night time, there are groups of men hanging out at the side walk in front of the property. We did not encounter any issues at all, but it does make you feel unsafe as a transient traveller. I am sure if you are a resident there, and know the place well, there wouldnt be any problems. The unit itself is slightly small for 4 adults, but OK if you are travelling with young children.
