Paula's place is perfect! It's in the best location to be in the center of Venice but away from some of the overly touristy spots. At night, the area near us had some really fun bars, which was awesome. You're steps from restaurants and market and Grand Canal. The apartment is really big, nice, and clean. Be aware that there are a lot of stairs to get to it, but we didn't find that to be a problem, just something to note. Paola was super easy to communicate with and checkin was a breeze.
Highly recommend! And would definitely stay again!
