Let me start by saying, this is not the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. I spend about half the month at different hotels for work, so I probably notice more than most. This hotel I can only assume has different properties around Venice.
I’ll start with the good, for the price this hotel is okay. Considering everything around is twice the price. It’s clean, the floors are swept (unlike the two previous hotels we stayed in Italy) the tiles are new. There’s a 3ft fridge in the room so that’s helpful, the beds are clean, the linens are fresh and new, they even come with fresh towels daily. We left without realizing they would come change the towels, ie we left iPads, laptops, cash and other valuable items, nothing was taken. The water pressure was amazing, the bathrooms remodeled (keep in mind this is Europe, showers are smaller) and air conditioning was strong.
The bad, the room/apartment we were assigned was a quarter mile from the “lobby/ check in desk”. Not exaggerating. Which is not unheard of just annoying since other places meet you at the apartment and do the intake there. The beams in the ceiling I understand were placed to create a rustic design. However, they are very very old, they almost look unstable the worst part is. These small black bugs fall from the ceiling because they’re in these beams they fall randomly, we slept under the sheets so they wouldn’t fall on us while we slept. It was very uncomfortable and disgusting. For $300/night I expected better
