“It was a great day I loved it. Staff were really nice too.”
I like it, cause it was a wee bit far away from The main Square, but it was so easy for the taxes to get to the property.

Everything was great, but it would be nice to have at least one chair in the room. But the view from the window was amazing! Clean bed linen, and overall very comfortable.

“Good hostel if you want to stay in Venice”
Beautiful views of Venice from my dorm window! I found the bed comfortable too. There is a nice common area and cafe/bar to hang out and it is reasonably social

“The hostel exceeded my expectations — I will definitely come back again.”
I was traveling to Venice alone, so it was important for me to find an affordable, cozy, and safe place, and I definitely made the right choice. I was able to work in the beautiful lobby area, where you can also relax since there is billiards, board games, table football, and many chill-out spaces. There is also what I would call a freelancer zone, where people comfortably work on their laptops. There’s also a café where you can eat and have drinks. The room was very quiet (of course, it also depends on the roommates, but I got lucky), and I had an amazing sleep. The shower and toilet were clean, although someone before me had left hair in the sink after washing up — but that’s not the hostel’s fault, it depends on how tidy people are. I stayed in a women-only room, which was super comfortable because I didn’t have to worry about changing clothes or other awkward moments. The water view was also a very pleasant surprise — I didn’t expect it to be that beautiful. I especially want to mention the amazing staff and the overall atmosphere. To sum up: • clean • amazing lobby with lots of amenities (that’s actually why I booked this place) • its own café • comfortable beds • quiet • very cozy and comfortable • incredibly kind and professional staff • pay attention to the location, but for me it was actually a pleasant surprise because I got to experience Venice without the crowds
