Dear Matilda, thank you very much for your review. We are sorry that this aspect of your stay disappointed you, but unfortunately it is impossible for us (just like it is for many other properties in Venice) to install air conditioning in the building, therefore we do not advertise this service. Nonetheless we hope that you enjoyed your stay in Venice and our other facilities. Kind regards, Sunny Terrace Hostel

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Bien pour du pas cher
La terrasse est un vrai +, regarder "la vie est belle" en plein air sur le toit avec la vue sur la ville italienne c'est magique ! (15 août) Mais le wifi ne fonctionne pas beaucoup (à part sur le toit justement) et les chambres son mal isolées (on entend les voisins). Il fait très chaud l'été. Quartier sur une île calme et tranquille.

Einfache Unterkunft ohne Essen
Das Hostel war nicht so einfach zu finden und liegt auf einer Insel, die von Venedig aus nur mit Fährboot zu erreichen ist. Also sollte man bei mehrtägigem Aufenthalt sich ein Mehrtagesticket für den Fährverkehr zulegen. Leider war keine Klimaanlage im Zimmer, dies war bei Ankunft durch Sonneneinstrahlung total aufgeheizt. Free W-Lan war zwar vorhanden aber sehr schwach. Da auch viele junge Leute hier absteigen ist dies schon ein Nachteil. Auf der Insel kann man wunderschön am Kanal zu Venedig sitzen und beim Essen auf Venedig und die auslaufenden Kreuzfahrtschiffe schauen.

Günstig, aber auch leider nicht gut.
Für Venedig ist dieses Hotel relativ günstig. Die Lage ist wunderbar und wirklich der einzige Grund, weshalb man sich für dieses Hotel entscheiden sollte. Denn es ist eher eine Jugendherberge, kein Hotel und dafür definitiv zu teuer. Die Terasse ist sehr schön, aber uns wäre viel wichtiger gewesen, dass einige Basics stimmen. Leider aber war das Zimmer (v.a. das Bad) nicht sauber und sehr schimmlig, unser Zimmer lag zum Laubengang hin und war daher bei geöffnetem Fenster theoretisch für jeden zugänglich, was bei sehr heißen Temperaturen sehr unpraktisch ist, weil man die Fenster dann nur kippen kann. Die Zimmertüren fallen sehr laut ins Schloß und wenn das Fenster zur Hofseite liegt (wie in unserem Fall), ist es insgesamt (v.a. abends) doch recht laut. Eigentlich hatten wir im Vorfeld den Wunsch geäußert, ein Zimmer zur Kanalseite und in einem der oberen Stockwerke zu bekommen, was uns vom Hotel auch bestätigt wurde. Beim Check-In wurde dieser Wunsch allerdings mit dem Hinweis abgewiesen, dass alle anderen Zimmer vergeben seien - schön blöd, denn dann hätten wir das Zimmer nicht gebucht. Bis auf die Dame beim Check-In war das Personal allerdings sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Handtücher (pro Person ein kleines) und Klopapier gibt es auf Nachfrage, Seife und Fön nicht. Die Übernachtung ist dafür dann doch einfach zu teuer...

Habitación de estudiantes adaptada a Hostal
El Hostal no es un hostal, es una residencia de estudiantes que han adaptado a Hostal, con lo cual deja mucho que desear... - Nosotros fuímos en verano y tuvimos que dormir con las ventanas cerradas (porque no hay rejas y da directamente a la calle) bajo techo, las noches estabamos a 35ºC dentro de la habitación sin aire acondicionado...os podéis imaginar que no dormimos nada... - Ponen que hay WIFI, pero en teoria solo hay en las salas de wifi, no en las habitaciones, y como aún y asi no nos funcionava el internet teníamos que conectarnos en la terraza de arriba de todo del hostal...y como nosotros todo el mundo...

Vi kom dit runt 00-01 på natten. Checkade in och frågade om man ku de köpa dricka någonstans. Då svarade dom med att man kan dricka kranvattnet. Nästa dag hittade vi en varuautomat i common room. Går nattbåtar hela natten. Om man inte vill åka båt ska man nog på andra sidan.

Bel Hostel YMCA à Venise pour l'été
Il s'agit d'une résidence étudiante qui est transformée l'été en auberge de jeunesse. La chambre comprend une salle de bains privée avec douche. J'ai eu la chance d'avoir une chambre avec 2 fenêtres en angle très lumineuse (107 bâtiment de l'accueil). C'est une équipe de jeunes polonais qui gèrent les réservations. Tous les contacts se font en anglais L'auberge de jeunesse disposent de terrasses gigantesques avec des vues panoramiques sur Venise. Il y a un supermarché à proximité. Cependant il n'y a pas de climatisation et l’hôtel est situé sur l'ile de Giudecca ce qui nécessite de prendre le couteux vaporetto pour rallier la Place St Marc (Pass 40€ les 3 jours ou 30€ les 2 jours). C'est moins cher qu'un hotel mais beaucoup plus cher qu'une auberge de jeunesse classique !
