The staff here were really tired but they were ok to talk to when you broke through. They had some weird thing where, after staying a couple nights we were told they were too booked to have us for a 3rd one, but could have us back on the 4th night. Finally, they found a bed, reluctantly, and only after... More

Travel and Sport sent a school group to Italy. They had the following feedback: Overall accommodation - Can improve Check in - Excellent Room quality - Not bad Staff service - Good Location - Good Food - Good It was difficult for teachers to share with the students. There should be double or twin rooms for teachers. More

The title says it all. And we have photo evidence. Wisely my boyfriend decided not to show me the photos until after we had checked out. It’s more like a prison, each floor having 6 ‘rooms’ without doors, each ‘room’ holding 10 bunk beds, an automatic lights out time of 10:30pm and lights on time of 8:30am. Along with having... More

Had a lovely room at the front with great views of the campanile in San Marco Square. Great value for money - by far the cheapest place we could find to stay in Venice. Sleep quality not the greatest as the room where we stayed was open with at least 8 other sets of bunk beds, and from the other... More

Better than other hostels. Cheap bottles of wine and 'fast' food on sale in the dining area. Breakfast was nothing to rave about but for the price you pay its quite reasonable. The staff were friendly and helpful. I was travelling with 2 friends, staying in an all female dorm of 14. We were lucky that the others in our... More

As YHA members we have stayed in some great hostels. Unfortunately this was not one of them. Yes it was relatively cheap, yes the view was great but the hostel was awful. It felt like it was run like a jail. As a married couple we were amazed that they only had single sex shared dorms. I was allocated a... More

The staff is good, the rooms are clean, and the location is nice, but I think this is more a place to go if you are looking to meet fellow travellers rather than get a decent sleep. There is a food counter inside, and you can buy a bottle of wine for 6.50euro and take it outside to drink on... More

If your expectations are at the right level, you will be perfectly satisfied with this hostel. Rooms, bathrooms and linen are clean, staff are efficient, the breakfast is perfectly adequate, and the location is brilliant; just across the canal from St Marks - what a view! Two slight downsides: rooms are large with sliding doors which don't lock (large lockers... More
