Für einen Venedigtrip sehr zu empfehlen.
Pros:

SEHR GUTE LAGE IM HERZEN VENEDIGS. Sehr gutes ruhiges Zimmer im 2. Stock (empfehlenswert , da neu renoviert)

Cons:

Frühstück ist eher mager. Laut, da die Servicekräfte fast im Frühstücksraum die Teller für die Spülmaschine säubern. Hoher Lärmpegel.

Fantastic location close to everything.
Pros:

The location right between the Rialto Bridge area and San Marco Piazza - 5 minutes to each. Restaurants and shops all nearby. The room was spacious and well air conditioned. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The bathroom was very modern with a great shower

Cons:

We had a great room on the 2nd floor but you had to walk up one floor and then take the elevator one more floor up. It made getting the luggage up and down more difficult. The breakfast was just average.

Great location in Venice.
Pros:

The hotel is just a minutes walk from Rialto bridge and Vaporetto (taxi) service. Very easy to access. The room was large (3 people), clean, comfortable and the bathroom was clean and well appointed. The hotel is also minutes away from St. Mark's Square and Doge's palace. The included breakfast was very good with lots of options. There is no elevator, so it wouldn't be a good choice for individuals with compromised mobility. The hotel is good value for the price and was quiet and quaint. Although not right on a canal, it is well within walking distance to local transportation and Venice highlights. Staff was friendly and helpful.

A decent choice
Pros:

The location was very good. Breakfast was much better than an average hotel breakfast. The staff was helpful. There was a nice decor in the rooms. Overall this hotel was better than expected, as was Venice in general.

Cons:

The room we had was on the small side, but nicely decorated. Larger rooms are availabel and it is worth spending for the extra space if your budget allows. The bathroom was cramped and had little room to store toiletries. Sewage was pumped out of the hotel at the end of our stay which created a bad odor in the lobby and breakfast room. That was only as we were leaving, otherwise it was not an issue.
