My girlfriend and I had a great stay at Paola's place. We had everything we needed in an ideal location - right near Rialto Bridge! - and we felt very comfortable in the apartment. If you haven't been to Venice, it's an extremely walkable city, and it felt like we were at the center of everything. Aside from the bridge's stores, there was a huge outdoor food market within steps of the door as well as great shops and places to eat and drink. We were also very close to the water-bus stop, where Paola met us when we arrived. I'd recommend her place to any couple looking for a place to stay in Venice.
