Great location, all the staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean with newly refurbished on-suites. Although small for many other European hotels they are larger than many in Venice.
Breakfast was superb with lots of plentiful choice. Would highly recommend. Great value for money

It was a very good location for sightseeing.
The reception staff were all kind and easy to talk to. I was worried that there was no elevator, but they helped me carry my suitcase up and down the stairs so it was no problem.
The breakfast buffet had a wide variety and was enjoyable.

The staff here was amazingly nice. The room very small but typical Europe the price was good as was the breakfast. The location was very good to walk to places, especially Saint Mark Square about a four minute walk. I would definitely stay at this hotel if I came back to Venice. They also helped me get transportation from the airport which is expensive so it was nice that they took care of that for me at a price lower than what my travel agent was able to find.

The staff was kind and helpful when we had questions about gondolas and dining. The breakfast was fabulous, with lots of hot and cold breakfast choices. Our room was tiny but functional and clean. Great location -- 5-minute walk from Rialto and 5 minutes in the other direction to St. Mark's Square. It's a boutique hotel in need of renovation; on the other hand, its age and style also has charm.

They gave us such great attention and suggestions to make our travel more enjoyable. I credit Miriam for all her help in making the necessary changes to our itinerary. The location was central to all sites we wanted to visit. I highly recommend this Hotel to all who are looking for a comfortable place to stay in Venice.
