We were met at Rialto Mercato waterbus stop by Cinzia (Paola's sister), just as organised. It is a very short walk to the apartment. It is in a great location with everything just a walk away. It is not too quiet or too busy a location, with plenty of places to shop or eat nearby. The apartment is small but well appointed and very comfortable. Cinzia was a great host and we felt very welcome. I would certainly reccomend.
