Reviews and Ratings
This hotel is a gem near San Marco, offering a convenient location to explore all the major attractions on foot. The service is exceptional with friendly staff who go out of their way to assist you, making it a great value for money. On the downside, the rooms lack a view and are situated elsewhere, but still close enough to San Marco.
The hotel rooms are quite modern and neat, even though the structure is old, giving it a real good charm. They have everything you need for both short and long stays. However, you might have to stay at another hotel if you need air conditioning in all rooms that is self-controlled but not matching the price you paid before.
I had a great stay at the hotel! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The staff was very helpful and provided clear instructions on how to get to the hotel. The location was superb, being quieter than the San Marco district but still within easy reach of all the tourist destinations.
