Paolo’s place is just perfect! We had stayed our first 3 nights in a hotel right by the Rialto Bridge, which was beautiful but very chaotic with so many tourists in the area. When we moved to Paolo’s apartment, we found a whole other Venice that we hadn’t seen. The apartment is just beautiful and pristinely clean...but what we liked just as much was what was outside. With a 3-5 minute walk you could get to wonderful restaurants, bakeries and even a grocery store. One of our very favorite places to eat was La Zucca, an amazing (mostly) vegetarian restaurant. If you stay here, you will be very happy with your choice. Even the outdoor courtyard is wonderful for dining, or reading. Thank you for everything, Paolo!
