    Breakfast could have been better. The room could have been bigger and a bit roomy.

    Location was close to Rialto. If you plan to walk from the station it's about 30mins but have good connectivity via water taxis.

    1. First night, room had many mosquitos (but personnel fixed it with anti-mosquito equipment) 2. The outdoor cafe place was closed

    1. Breakfast was rich e.g. omelet or pancakes as main and many more options in buffet 2. Good location close to St. Marco square 3. Nice room decoration and spacious bathroom

    Although I was expecting it to be somewhat corny on the decoration, our room was entirely filled with burgundy colored tapestry, including the bed blanket, which was waaaay too much. The shower box was also unnecessarily small given the size of the bathroom, which needed attention as to not accidentally change the temperature or close the water.

    Hotel is very well located, being a very easy walkable distance from Fondamente Nove, which is Alilaguna's first stop when coming from the airport, so we took the boat both to and from the airport. It's also in an area that's not that much affected by acqua alta, and has some good restaurants nearby, and a coop market right across. The breakfast was pretty good, with a varied offer of food and drinks. Bed was comfortable and shower was good.

    The rooms are small, the ones overlooking the street in front of the entrance are very noisy, you can hear everything that is being said by those outside who pass by on the street. at 6 in the morning it starts to smell like food in the room, the people at the hotel start preparing breakfast and the smell reaches the room very quickly and easily, the smell wakes you up if you have a finer nose in front of the hotel there are about 2 restaurants, in the morning they start to take their tables outside and prepare the terrace, you can hear the noise from the room, you are kind of woken up by the sound of the tables

    The hotel looks good inside, in Venetian style, the breakfast is quite varied, the staff very ok, they offered us an umbrella when it was raining the hotel is located in a very good area, quieter and not very full of tourists, 5 minutes from the Rialto and about 10 minutes from the center, from the dome

    The building is old and although well transformed, there are aspects of the room that can be improved. Both windows of the room were facing the inner yard which was covered and used for the breakfast area. This had as a result a lot of noise coming from the breakfast area throughout the breakfast time (7am to 11am). Additionally the windows did not have protection from insects and mosquitos therefore, once you would open the windows to air the room, mosquitoes and ants were getting in. Mosquitoes are a known problem of the city but there are ways to prevent them from getting in and improve the stay.

    The hotel is located at a very central location yet a quiet square with pastry/caffee-shop, restaurant and mini market all around. The place was very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. A bit plus that the reception is 24/7 and staff are ready to help anytime. The room was very nicely decorated in the mood of the city and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was very good with a variety of savory and sweet choices and exceptional service. Overall, a good place to stay a few days and explore the city.

    Great location close to all the main spots. They allowed our Labrador to accompany us, which made the visit stress-free. A great stay!

    The staff were friendly, helpful and gave great tips, advice! Since it rained almost every day, I was able to borrow an umbrella and that was a bonus! The hotel is centrally located and easily accessible (I walked from the train station). My room was smallish but beautifully appointed and the bathroom was pristine. Although the decor and antiques aren't particularly my style, we undeniably feel in Venice and that's awesome! Across the street, a great fresh pasta place that offers take away for less than 10€!

    We need brochures for tourist places to visit but we were not offered. The hotel usually offers brochures to tourist so we can plan where to go. We were not told that we have lifts or elevator … the stairs are hard for the 3 of us

    Breakfast was excellent . Lots of selections!
