Massimo was a fabulous host. He was readily available at any time by a quick phone call. He had spectacular restaurant reviews that were off the beaten path. We tried all of them and had great meals for decent prices. Also, my husband and I had visited Venice in the past and Massimo suggested a great day walk that took us to a location we had not seen before. The apartment is in a wonderfully quiet area but still a short, easy walk to the Rialto Bridge. I highly recommend a stay at Massimo's.
