Don't be put off by the front elevation of the building. The main entrance is just around the corner. The room was lovely and clean with adequate plug sockets, minibar and hairdryer. Decor was old french style with material wall hangings as opposed to wallpaper, looked as if it had not long been refurbished. The staff were helpful and friendly. The reason I have only given a very good rating and not an excellent one is that whilst a continental breakfast was included, there was not much choice and you had to catch the waitress if you wanted more than the first cup of coffee which was served to you.

We could not have been happier than finding this place to stay in Venice.

The people are warm and caring and serve continental breakfast in the morning. They do not have a lift so if you have a ton of bags you will need to make a few trips. We found the location perfect to be out of the masses and quiet for the most part aside from some construction close by. The rooms are very clean and vintage feeling with pretty cool ambiance. Pretty close walk to the train station and the entry port.

If we came to Venice again would definitely stay here again.

We had the top level room overlooking the canal and its amazing.
Room is spacious and relatively clean. Its kind of old french type decor, very marie antoinette type. Overall happy my one suggestion is to put in a shower screen as water goes everywhere when taking a shower over bath.
And also, down the road near the bridge there is a Trattoria called Pontini, recommended by the hotel and its a very very good Trattoria, go eat there at least once.
