Nov 13, 2009 - This place is amazing. its cheap, clean, central, easy to find, the staff are very helpful and fun.
I will be staying here again. I recommend this place to everyone no matter what age they are.
Nov 12, 2009 - The entrance to the hostel is spooky but the room upstairs was clean and comfortable. The street outside is very noisy so is hard to sleep, but you will be near fun spots in Venice.
Nov 08, 2009 - Was a great expirience!. The guy from the reception is really cool. The have all the information you want, you hace a kitchen, the bath si newww and really really clean, the dorms are perfect!. You are near from the main distractions and bars. Really good one!.
Nov 03, 2009 - This hostel was fine. The room and bathroom were clean and well kept, the location was good - 5 minutes walk from Rialto Bridge and 15-20 from the train / bus station, and the receptionist was friendly.Only complaints would be that it is hard to recognise - it doesn't have a prominent sign outside, and when you first open the door of the building, before climbing up the stairs to where the hostel is, it does seem like it's a seedy, run down place. They really should do something about the ground floor area - I don't know if the hostel owns that part of the building or not.Another thing - they say they give breakfast - but it's really a croissant and a cup of coffee or juice in a cafe next door. It's a great idea to pair up like that with a local cafe, but the breakfast should be more substantial.
Oct 24, 2009 - Every thing was great except the heating which didn't work at all.
Oct 24, 2009 - Very friendly staff, room and breakfast is ok, no glass or cup for drinking, no toilette paper.
Sep 22, 2009 - Very good position: central and close to all interesting sites.
Clean if you have in-room bathroom, out-of-room bath was quite dirty.
Overall: if you want to spend a night in Venice with low budget. it's the right hostel for you!
Sep 17, 2009 - We,ve been moved to another hotel for cleaning purposes. But tha one's been good fun, friendly and clean.
Hotel Iris
Sep 16, 2009 - We stayed at the hostel two nights in September 2009. Before leaving the hostel, we discovered the bed was full of bed bugs! I would not recommend this hostel until they clean up the bed bugs!
Other than that, the room was spacious, with a beutiful view of rooftops outside, the bathroom was clean. The location is good, close to the market, with a few cafes in the neighboring buildings. Hence, the street is very noisy. Our AC did not work and we had to try to sleep with he open windows and ignore the noise. The street usually got quieter at around 2am :-(.The breakfast is very moderate: coffee and a croissant.
Sep 15, 2009 - If you want to find a comfortable place to sleep and keep your things, this place is great! Not the kind of "hostel" you hang out and meet people. This place is in the best location and feels safe.
