Located very conveniently across the Scalzi BRidge and behind the San Simeon Piccolo Church, hardly 5 mins away from the Train Station. We were surprised that our room had neither bath nor toilet attached ! All the other rooms had them. Couldn't figure out why.Luckily the shared bath and toilet was only used by us on our floor.Neat and clean facilities. Good breakfast room with additional items like yogurt , juice etc, though it opens a bit late, at 8 AM. Very good location for an entry to Venice and for getting to the Bus Station for the airport ride. A bit pricey , but that is Venice , we suppose !

It took a while, dragging our suitcases to find the hotel...but once we found it, the location was easy access and convenient to the bus station and restaurants, etc. The breakfast was bare minimum, but served the purpose...coffee was excellect! We stayed there the night before and after our cruise and it gave us an opportunity to see Venice.

Hotel is located close to all public transports with only one or two bridges to cross. Staff speaks excellent English and was able to help with directions. Unfortunately, stairs to the second floor room are nerrow and hard to negotiate with baggages.

The direction on the webpage was not clear. Actually this is a very good hotel b/c the alley leading to the hotel is practically opposite the railway station across the canal. It takes only 10 minutes to walk from Venice Santa Lucia to the hotel.(From front of station, go left, cross the first bridge by the church, turn right, go for about 100 meters. The alley is on your left, about 1meter wide. At the end, turn left. The hotel is on the right.) The hotel is all non-smoking-which is very good. The bathroom is clean and modern. The breakfast is not bad but should be more substantial for its price. However, Venice is a VERY expensive place. Warning: Venice has several bridges we need to WALK across. Secondly, the hotel does not have an elevator though the stories are not high up. Still having big bags can be a problem. Also, you don't need any map. Venice is tourist friendly, you can just walk and follow the arrow signs to popular places.
