Paolo and Riccardo waited us at the port to pick us up. They were very helpful and recommended us a very nice local restaurant for lunch. It's very easy to use public transport boat travelling from airport to the nearest port, then it's only 5 mins walk to the apartment. The apartment itself was lovely, and well equipped. It has a very nice view and a small balcony facing the canal. We had a fun time in Venice. I prefer winter time here because it's less crowded. I would highly recommend to stay at Paolo's if you ever come to Venice. The pictures they posted doesn't justify well the beauty of the apartment including the lovely stairs and corridors outside the apartment.
