perfekte ruhige Lage
Pros:

Die Lage war das Beste, das Frühstück praktisch aber eben italienisch. Das Personal ist jung, dynamisch, freundlich.
alles ist fussläufig erreichbar, San Marco 18 Min. Vaporetto Station in unmittelbarer Nähe, eine zweite Vaporetto Station zum Canale 5 Min Entfernung.

Cons:

.Die Aussicht aus dem Zimmer sehr schlecht, die Vorhänge sehr dunkel, schwer und ein wenig bedrohlich.

Nice hotel, but definitely not worth 500+ euro a night
Pros:

The staff was amazing.

Cons:

We didn’t have air in our room and I think the price was way too expensive for the value

Meilleur spot pour profiter de Venise
Pros:

Deuxième séjour dans cet hôtel et le lieu est toujours aussi charmant, avec sa décoration inspirée de l’Italie des années 60, son jardin pour les petits-déjeuners et dîners
