This hotel is definitely a budget level hotel with very few amenities. We did not eat the breakfast so I do not know about it. The staff was quick to respond to all of my emails and questions, which was a huge help while planning our trip. They took my bag up a flight of stairs to our room. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable. It is located in an area with restaurants and other shops so it was noisy at night but it did not bother us. It was close to the area where the public transportation is. The price was good for Venice.

The average of the Hotel was very good, Mateo and Francesco at the Reception were excellent included Irina at Breakfast too, but there was this girl on Sunday, at the Reception Desk that honestly I could believe how rude she was!!! I never experience such an unwelcoming and she she didn't not have a clue on how to emphasize with guests,she should be in that position, to be honest dealing with her spiñoid the entire weekend!!!

There was no elevator; there was no 24/7 receptionist; no one cared to help with the luggages since there was no elevator during check out; the front door are always left open at night due to guests arriving late, and made me feel unsafe: things i liked: the room and the hotel was clean and near the vaporetto.

Great accommodation. Easy access.

Great accommodation. Comfortable room, great staff, good bathroom. They offer a bottle of water daily. Great location, easy to find by S. Zaccaria point. Close to San Marco. Good restaurants nearby. It was the first hotel to charge fairly for the breakfast in Italy. I would only recommend to have fruits. Other point to improve - the towels smell vinegar. I would totally recommend this hotel.

It was a great stay! AC was working well, super great location, staff was friendly and everything was clean. Only thing was our room was right next to the breakfast area so we always got woken up by people going there and also can hear people late at night at the restaurant below but not very troublesome and we enjoyed our whole stay regardless
