My stay was absolutely amazing. As a solo traveler and a young woman I felt completely safe in the hotel and the staff was very accommodating. Would recommend to everyone looking for a place to stay in Venice.

Great stay!! Easy to book, and we arrived after check-in was over and had to call last-minute to let them know. They were very friendly and gave us the info we needed to check in on our own. When we arrived, we were shocked at how beautiful and unique the room was! It was incredible. They had also left some toiletries, snacks, and slippers to make our stay more comfortable. The only thing that was strange was that when we first arrived, there was a horrible smell coming from the bathroom, but we ran the water for a minute and opened the door onto the balcony, and it cleared out within minutes. In the meantime, the staff quickly responded to the issue and allowed us to view other rooms in case we wanted to move that night. Excellent service, beautiful building, nice shower and bathroom, everything was comfortable. The bed could have been more comfortable, but is suitable for most. A great value for the price, and a unique place to stay in Venice!

We had much higher expectations of this place based on the very good reviews and photos. Unfortunately we were disappointed based on a number of things: - this is not really a hotel, so not sure why it is on Expedia, especially VIP access. It's more like a bed and breakfast, but there is no breakfast. So this is just a bed... room to sleep in, but otherwise no other amenities other than housekeeping. - reception is only available for a few hours per day. When we arrived at 6pm, a fairly normal time to arrive, there was no one there just a key in an envelope. - since there is no reception, and the doors are very old with keys, it did not feel overly secure/safe. - canal view is not a canal view. It is a view of the street, and if you go out onto the little patio and turn 90 degrees you see a canal. Should say "partial canal view" or something. - perhaps the most concerning was the floor was visbily sagging and sloping, extremely creaky, and actually bounced a bit when standing in the middle. Very much in need of new flooring, and not sure if this is structurally safe. - safe did not work. The place has great potential to be a cool/antique hotel, but try adding breakfast, more reception hours, and renovating. Overall, I think the standard for Venice is different than the rest of Europe. Maybe for Venice, for a price of $200-$300, this is a good hotel. I guess for a room that is the quality of the rest of Europe, you need to pay $500-$600 per night. The location is great.

My husband and I loved our stay! The staff was super friendly and helpful and gave us clear directions on how to get there and let us drop off our bags early. We loved the location of hotel, there is the great gelato shop on the corner we went to twice a day. The room was beautiful! Just like the pictures, very clean and more spacious than we thought. And the staff had a lot of goodies ready for us in the room. I can’t say enough good things. If we come back to Venice we will gladly stay here again!

Small and nice.
This is a very small hotel with no front desk and self check-in (at least it was for me). It’s tucked away, but if you follow the directions provided by the hotel it’s relatively easy. The room was clean, larger than most European rooms and quiet. I would stay here again.

Older hotel, very friendly staff! hidden away but close to waterbus stop. Great directions from staff to get there. The walls are a bit thin if other guests are up. Shower stall leaked all over bathroom floor. Great wifi/Netflix accessibility on TV. Had room on first floor but there's no elevator if you have an upstairs room.

Centrally located
We enjoyed our stay! The hotel was very centrally located and that made it super easy to navigate around Venice. It was strange not being greeted by anyone. Check in was easy and we had no issues. Our room was comfortable with a small view of the canal. Our breakfast hostess was very sweet and helpful. It was a typical European breakfast with lots of pastries and little protein.

Great location, so easy to get to everywhere you would want to visit quickly. Places to eat nearby and a great bar/cafe just around the corner for breakfast, lunch and a drink. Check-in was quick and simple. We had an early arrival and advised the hotel of this to see if we could leave our luggage before the room was ready but fortunately our room was ready and were able to have access which was great. Overall can't recommend this hotel highly enough!

Quaint hotel only 10 minutes from St. Mark’s square and 3-4 minute walk to the S. Maria del Giglio vaporetto stop. There were 4 adults in our room. It was a tight fit, but we made it work. Would stay here again!

I read a review that describes the property as a little gem. It was accurate and yes the staff were very nice and helpful. The location was 5mins from S.M Giglio waterbus stop, less than 10 mins from Teatro La Fenice and St Marks Square. It was easy to find using the directions given. The communications from Brunella re our arrival started a week before and during our subsequent late arrival due to a delayed flight could not be faulted.The nearby bakery, cafes and restaurants do serve delicious local cuisine at very reasonable prices. My room was spotless and and roomy. The room pictures are what you get. Highly recommend a stay here.

We had a brilliant time in Venice and staying here was one of the main reasons. The location is fantastic - you're right behind a small square with a lovely gelato place, and very close to another square with restaurants. It's also so close to San Marco Basilica so you're never far away from all the action. At night it's also perfectly safe and lots of people around whole still being incredibly quiet. Brunella was fantastic leading up to our trip and helped a lot in preparation. Her colleague (apologies I don't know his name) was so nice when we got there and was always on hand. I proposed to my girlfriend on this trip and they were both super generous providing us with the nice canal view room and a bottle of prosecco. The room itself was perfectly sized and gave you a real sense for the city. The cleaning lady was very friendly and always left our place fresh and clean every morning. Can't rate this place higher, definitely the right way to do Venice!

Okay, this place exceeded my expectations! An absolute gem in a quite & peaceful central part of Venice. The room with the nice decor , cute balcony & typical venetian style is just mind-blowing. Thank you for Brunella & Edigio for their kind assistance. I highly recommend staying in this hotel if you’re planning to visit Venice. I’m sure I’ll be back again!

The place was great and central to a lot of places we wanted to visit. The “canal view” listing for the room We stayed in is a little misleading, since the room is actually over a street, but there’s a canal that starts off to the right. You can see it if you can fit through doors on the small balcony. But it was very nice!

Good but also a bit disappointing.
Positives: The staff were very friendly and very warm and helpful and the location was convenient. Negatives: The room was advertised as a double, and yet the beds were two single beds on two different bed frames so moved apart if you moved at all whilst sleeping. Further, the toilet paper was quite cheap and wasn't replaced. This meant we literally used up to the very last square on the last day. We felt too awkward contact the staff as it was New Years Day. Whilst there were good things about this stay, definitely didn't warrant the 550 price tag.

We enjoyed our stay. We were out and about each day but were able to enjoy the breakfast of croissants, cappuccino or American coffee, jams and jellies, cereal, etc. The server was very friendly and accommodating. We were a little confused in finding the place from the S.M. Giglio vaporretto stop but that was our issue not the directions. I felt a little uncomfortable with the entrance down an alleyway beyond and arch off the square but that's just my New York attitude. The shower was a little tight if you are a large person. We were on the first floor which I would recommend. Be aware there is no AC in the off season which begins October but with the windows and cool nights there was no issue. I would recommend the roof safe be bolted in place but again that's my NY attitude. The young lady that runs the hotel saved us because there was a vaporetto strike that she told us about and help us with alternative transport to the train station. She arranged for a water taxi versus walking. The hotel is a convenient walk to St Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge as well as vaporetto stops. Heck if you don't want to walk then don't go to Venice. The Wi-fi was excellent.

Liked our room. Disliked that there was NO FRUIT of any kind available at breakfast. They communicated well about check-in and directions to the property from the vaporetto stop. But when they prompted us to pay the room taxes before our departure, they insisted on cash, and then the guy disappeared to go get coffee for 20 minutes, thereby seriously incoveniencing us, as we needed to leave. Delaying our departure like that was not good.

The staff was very friendly. Brunella was very helpful. I traveled with 2 young adults that did not get up and leave the room in time for housekeeping to attend to the room which was fine but would have been nice to be able to get towels. Unable to see the canal and the "canal view" is misleading. Otherwise an excellent stay!

Awesome stay in Venice
We had a lovely stay in Venice. Me and my friends booked two rooms here with canal views. I thought the location was great and we enjoyed the updated bathrooms and traditional décor in the room. Air conditioning was definitely a must during our stay and the room was nice and cool for us. The breakfast is basic but we were all satisfied, and I thought the selections and options were pretty standard to American style hotel breakfasts. What a nice surprise it was to have American style brewed coffee as an option. Brunella was so easy to work with on our check in and very helpful on helping me figure out how to get to the airport early in the morning since Venice was our last stop in Italy. I would recommend this hotel and definitely would stay in this area again since it was tucked away from the hustle and bustle but very close to everything.
