The hotel is on the third floor, no elevator, 51 steps up. Its a little noisy in the mornings and evening with loud closing doors and people talking. If you need more towels than they give you have to pay for them. The owner is nice. He gave us several tips on where to eat and shop.

I stayed here on June 17th to 21st. Hospitality: 5/5. Piero was very welcoming and gave me tips on where to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner which helped a lot! Rafaella was kind enough to wish me a happy birthday. Two very lovely people! Location: 5/5. It is a 5 min walk from Rialto Bridge and the markets, 15 min walk from Doge’s Palace. Very convenient. Cleanliness: 5/5. The room was very clean, big comfy bed with nice white sheets and 6 pillows! It had an A/C unit too which was great. Overall I highly recommend this place! Thank you again! 5/5!!

The room was clean, but pretty basic. The bed did not have a frame, so it was very low and harder for an older person to get up and out of. The property is also up about 60 stairs with no elevator. Information at check in was very good. Location was also good. We had a shared bath with a modern, but very small shower.

While we had a good stay, the property is more run down than the photos suggest. It is a great location, and the basics are provided for. The bathroom is in a separate room to the bedroom. Pierro was very helpful. Venice is an amazing place and we were glad to be able to visit. Overall a great time was had.

Check in was easy, but there is no receptionist, so communication may be difficult at times for arrival, but we had no issues. At check out our contact for the hotel was rude, when we were asking about the hotel policies for check-out. Overall the location was good, for overall places to eat and see. We arrived by train and were able to take a water taxi to the dock where the hotel was located and it was a 3 minute walk to the hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Be aware, this facility has rooms with private bathrooms and rooms with shared bathrooms, which is poorly indicated in Expedia. Staff provided good recommendations. They send A LOT of emails and WhatsApp messages in the weeks ahead of the stay which was getting annoying but at the same time very available for information. Only significant negative point to note was poor response when we advised the shared bathroom was dirty, instead of apologizing and cleaning it they blamed the other customers and did not take ownership. Perfect location.

Fine for a couple of nights - quiet, clean, decent location. Bedroom (air conditioned) was across the hall from bathroom and living room (not air conditioned), which was a little odd. It was really hot, so there wasn’t much use of the living room. Lots of stairs and a little tough to find and get in.
