Tom, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff was amazing! They had a lot of patience with my friend and me. Took time to write back and forth. Took time to find resources for us. The bed was hard. The room was very warm (As an American, I guess I am not used to this warm room). Other than this, overall, it was wonderful.
Barbara, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The location was excellent, but it advertised as having air conditioning and we went through two different rooms that the staff said the air conditioning was working, but it definitely was not. It was like sleeping in a sauna.

4/10 Fair

The average of the Hotel was very good, Mateo and Francesco at the Reception were excellent included Irina at Breakfast too, but there was this girl on Sunday, at the Reception Desk that honestly I could believe how rude she was!!! I never experience such an unwelcoming and she she didn't not have a clue on how to emphasize with guests,she should be in that position, to be honest dealing with her spiñoid the entire weekend!!!

6/10 Good

There was no elevator; there was no 24/7 receptionist; no one cared to help with the luggages since there was no elevator during check out; the front door are always left open at night due to guests arriving late, and made me feel unsafe: things i liked: the room and the hotel was clean and near the vaporetto.

10/10 Exceptional

Great accommodation. Easy access.

Great accommodation. Comfortable room, great staff, good bathroom. They offer a bottle of water daily. Great location, easy to find by S. Zaccaria point. Close to San Marco. Good restaurants nearby. It was the first hotel to charge fairly for the breakfast in Italy. I would only recommend to have fruits. Other point to improve - the towels smell vinegar. I would totally recommend this hotel.

Florante, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a great stay! AC was working well, super great location, staff was friendly and everything was clean. Only thing was our room was right next to the breakfast area so we always got woken up by people going there and also can hear people late at night at the restaurant below but not very troublesome and we enjoyed our whole stay regardless
