Location, Location, Location. OMG, this is the best spot to be!!!! The staff was so friendly, and the breakfast was fun & delicious. Fresh baked croissants, ham & salami with a hot chocolate was perfect before a morning walk around Venice.. The building is what you expect from 200 year old charming spot. Get up early and you have the Rialto Bridge all to yourself. This is really 100ft walk, and the pizza place right on the corner was legit!!! I would absolutely stay here again.

The AC did not work, the room size was dramatically smaller than the pictures, the walls are paper thin. You hear everything from the alley and even people talking from the rooms next door. You could hear the toilets flush from the floors above you and an odd ticking coming from the wall. This was a horrible hotel.

No frills good for a budget. Close to Rialto

Front desk was average as far as friendliness goes. Room was fine. Shower was great. Outlets next to the bed which was great. Probably wouldn't stay here again though. Would choose somewhere with an elevator. Which of course was my fault for not checking. But within 1 minute of Rialto Bridge and less then 10 to St Mark's square so location was great.

Dirty room, toenail clippings, crumbs and dust around the bed area (visible without looking hard), rubbish under bed, clearly not cleaned. Dirty, wet towels on bed, when brought to the attention of staff was excused with bad weather that day and given more wet towels for replacement. Very dark, claustrophobic room.

Excellent location, if you don’t mind a drab, dirty hotel for the money.

Ok for a short break

Brilliant location, we were able to walk to everywhere we needed to go including the train-station. Plenty of restaurants and landmarks nearby. The receptionist that checked us in wasn't helpful with an issue that we had, however the receptionist the next two days was great and couldn't help enough. The room was clean, but tired. There is a kettle, but no cups. Bathroom clean, but a flickering light. The safe and patio doors were faulty, but fixed later on the second day. When we noticed the doors wouldn't lock we requested to be moved to another room or 2 doubles until they were fixed, as the safe also not working and the terrace lead to an upstairs and ladders to downstairs, but told no. Rooms were available as we made another booking to check and got right up to the payment part! Overall we were happy with our stay and can see past the small things, however the worry of leaving our cases unsecured to get some food for the children who had been travelling all day outweighed the positives. With a little diy it would have been a perfect review, as the location itself would be enough warrant the cost. Without stating the obvious... another room until the faults were fixed would have probably made this review an excellent one!

Phenomenal location, steps from Rialto. Junior Suite Room is small and basic, but the bunk beds allowed 4 grown people to sleep in comfort. Customer service was responsive. Bathroom is newly remodeled, but small with nowhere to set anything. We had a hanging shoe organizer and used it to hold our toiletries in the bathroom. Included a terrace that looked over the alleyway. AC worked well.

Good room but bring ear plugs

Overall, a decent place to stay. The issue we had were the fact that it’s extremely noisy. There is a door to the hallway that separated the main area that was kept open for some reason so we could hear all the commotion in the main hallway until 3-4am. It wasn’t quiet until I shut the door the next night and was able to get some sleep.

Also, the shower was barely big enough for an adult. The water had to be shut off to lather up because your head is under the shower head no matter how you stand in there.

Aside from those two things, the room was decent overall. The bed was comfortable and staff were friendly. The location was great but difficult to find at first. Once you get the hang of Venice, it’s not too bad.

The hotel is centrally located and within walking distance of most attractions. The Rialto Bridge is steps away as are the water buses. It is surrounded by shops and restaurants.
The reception is small but adequate. The room was a good size and lovely and warm when I arrived. It was quite chilly in the city at that time. Extra blankets were also provided.
The bathroom had a lovely waterfall shower.
There was a fridge and safe in the room which was nice and an open rail with hangers to hang your clothes.
All in all a great experience.

The best location for the value … and nothing else

First this place has the best location.Rialto bridge is basically right outside. There’s a tiny alleyway you could cut too and it takes you like 30 seconds and the aqua bus stops there too. It’s 8 minute walk to San Marcos Square if you’re not distracted by all the beautiful shops around. But be warned everything else is as the other review describes… the beds are uncomfortable, but firm and if you’re sleeping in a 3 person room do not expect much space, a moldy smell. There’s no elevator and lots of stairs. Furniture and bathroom is very outdated, but expected for Venice at this price point. They try to be as accommodating as possible when we first checked in our bathroom had a nonfunctioning toilet and they were able to switch us to another room, there is no screens on the windows and the AC was not on anymore because it was already end of October. They gave us a fan and we had to crack the window open because it was very stuffy. The streets are very loud as there is a restaurant right downstairs below our window. You have to use earplugs to sleep, also it’s in a very busy area so there’s gonna be noise. However, for the price, I would definitely stay here again for just how amazing the LOCATION!! We request a water kettle which was unavailable for the first night, but they found one for us for the second night and that was really nice. Clean towels, very basic toiletry amenities. Again, I can’t stress enough how it is conveniently located.

BE Aware when you book with this property, there is never anyone at the reception, and you have yo wait ages for someone to come and talk to you, no lies , we had to go a knock on the door upstairs as advised by a person that works in the bard nearby.

The other thing is that we’ve been giving wrong room that wasn’t even on their website it’s in different building completely, it was DISGUSTING, mould all over the bathroom and dead flies on the bath.

Went again to ask to change the room, but guess what no one was there and had to wait until next day in the morning we finally changed the room but we had to wait for about an hour to talk to someone because the receptionist is never there. A nice guy from the hotel bar works there and had to phone him on WhatsApp to come over.

Perfect location close to the Rialto bridge. We were met by a really lovely guy on reception who we unfortunately never got the name of. We were luckily given a room upgrade from the standard room we originally booked which was a really lovely surprise.

The room was large, clean and comfortable, we couldn’t have asked for better. Would definitely stay again as the price was great for the location.

A wee note is we found Google and Apple Maps were able to take us to the restaurant rather than the hotel when looking up the address when first arriving, just incase anyone can’t find it.

The hotel is very convenient to the Rialto bridge. There are plenty of options for dining and shopping.

Our room was ok until.... On our second night it started to rain... In our room! We woke at 1 am to water pouring from the the fixture in the bathroom and water pouring down the walls in our room... Literally it was raining in our room! I have video to prove I'm not exaggerating.

I explained that we needed to be moved because it was raining inside our room. He consulted his computer screen for several minutes and we took a walk up several flights of stairs to the third floor to look at a room. It was dry... Lol! But, we needed a room for 3 people as I had previously told him and this room could not accommodate 3. So, back downstairs we went. He consulted his computer again and then told me he needed to talk to his boss. Ok... I went back to my room with the crazy leaky ceiling.

He finally comes back with 2 sets of keys. They were putting us in 2 rooms... Room 11 on the second floor and Room 15 on the third floor. He told us we could leave our things in our original room, Room 3. We did our best to protect our belongings and take a few things to the newly assigned rooms.

In the morning I asked if they would adjust my bill due to the inconvenience. They waived the 21euro city tax but felt nothing further was due since they moved us to new rooms. But this was our last night. Very annoying that they didn't make an effort adjustment to my bill.

Convenient location but not any form of luxury

Firstly the service was really friendly, some nice people at reception.

The location is very convenient, super central and hidden down a side street so a bit quieter.

The hotel corridors feel very outside inside, and you're certainly setting yourself up for a \"where did I book\" experience for a bit.

Once arriving in the room the rooms are clean and tidy, however my bathroom was quite ropey, needs some repairs such as repairing the shower head holder, the door framing, the bath tub (about 1/2 size bath) had lots of damage over the years. It felt a bit like a hostel bathroom.
The bed for me was near rock solid, and this was a superior room, I wonder what the standard rooms are like.

The room was small and dark. On the day we were supposed to leave, we were woken up by a major water leak coming from the roof. We hurried to find someone working there, and when we did, he told us we could get a new room in two hours (luckily, we were already checking out that day). He then excused himself to “check something.” We packed our things and rushed out of the room, only to find him sitting at the reception, relaxing, seemingly, without a care in the world.
