Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room is OK for a quick stay in Venice. the location was good, nice restaurants within walking distance and the water bus was a 5 minute walk away. The hostel was standard. We had a room under the terrace area, we could hear every movement made by all other guests, the terrace was suppose to close at 10pm but we could hear people running up and down the stairs until 12am, that wasn't great.

Good place away from crowds

The hostel was nice enough for the price. Don't expect to be able to do much cooking. There was not a stove or oven in the kitchen or even a microwave. Kitchen was also minimally stalled since you couldn't actually cook. Room was okay and staff was very kind and helpful! It was nice to stay not in the main part of Venice which was really crowded in July. It was easy to get to and from the main island using the taxi boats and the hostel was relatively easy to find if you bought a map.

Easy to access Venice from this hotel

The hotel is actually in quite a good location which a map doesn't suggest. Easy 5 minute walk to the Palanca water bus station (when you know the way) which will take you pretty much everywhere you would want to go with the routes that stop there. The hotel staff were brilliant, in the group I went to Venice with there were no Italian speakers but all of the reception staff spoke very good English and were really friendly and answered any questions we had. The actual room was quite large and clean with a desk and chairs which we didn't expect but the rooms are definitely 'no frills'. From talking to other guests we gathered that nearly all of the rooms are without air conditioning which is something to bear in mind with the high humidity in Venice. It's also worth mentioning that you have to hand your room key in every time you leave the hotel. Once or twice we were given the wrong key back when we asked for our key which is something to bear in mind if you want to keep valuables in the room. Overall though we would use this hotel again as its great for the price and the terrace is a really lovely feature which we used a lot at night.

Great location

We had a private triple room. Walking distance to water taxis, grocery stores, easy access to all parts of Venice. The room was clean, sunny, and way more modern than I expected. Check in was hassle free, staff was friendly.

Convenient for the price

This is a very basic hostel. Rooms are large, and while they were clean enough, the walls and floors were very dirty. The "kitchen" comprised a microwave and a couple of plastic containers - nothing else. Bear in mind you will need to get the vaporetto every day to see the sights of Venice so factor this cost in. Ok for a short stay.

Dreadful hotel in venice with filthy rooms

The hostel is very dirty, the room was filthy, lots of dust on the floor and a former occupants underwear was left on the bed. It looked like it had not been cleaned for sometime. I would not recommend anyone staying here. The staff were poorly informed about the hotel and the surrounding area, luckily we knew where to find things. Look around and find a better hotel, this is not a good place to stay.

Perfect for a weekend in Venice

This hostel is safe, clean and in a great location. The directions describe how to get there perfectly. I arrived and the staff was friendly and I really enjoyed my room. The terrace is a real treat, especially at sunset! Great for solo travelers or a couple. Just know there are no toiletries or towels! Bring your own, and the wifi doesn't really work. Other than that- enjoy giudecca and enjoy Venice!

Very nice hostel - clean and tidy rooms and common areas, close to the supermarket, 10 minutes by water tram to St Mark's Square. Wi-Fi sometimes not working due to high amount of users!

tucked away gem, super affordable

Great little place tucked away on Guidecca, clean, quiet, close to vaporetto stop with a FANTASTIC front desk staff. They really do go out of their way... i am not saying this only because when I forgot a personal item they made sure I got it back ./they researched how to mail it to me - abroad/, they were all smiles, efficient, great group of young people.

Cheap but not very confortabel

The hotel is okay when it comes to price, but our beds were really unconfortable. What's more, there's no wifi connection in the rooms, you have to go to a wifi area and when I went there it didn't work. No conditionned air. Rooms were clean and big. It is okay because of its price.

Good price-value for a town like Venice

The hostel is normally a students home - used as a hostel during holidays. It is modern but not very fancy. The roof terrace is awesome and offers a good view over the channel of Guidecca. You can reach the city center as well as the train and bus terminal easily by boat. Make sure to get a Venicecard in advance.

Billigt Hostel centralt men ändå undan turisthavet

Jag sov eget rum med egen WC och dusch. Billigt och bra hostel i lungt område med gemytlig resturang och bar i närheten. Billig mataffär nära. Dåligt wi-fi i reception men dator fanns på plats. serviceinriktad personal. Båt station i närheten med bara två stopp till San Marco Inte perfekt dammsugit men rent i sängar och dusch. Takterrass med utsikt mot Venedig.
