The hotel staff spoke just partially English and we had some troubles with the reservation but it turned out just fine- we got a triple room for five nights for a double room price. The room was tiny tiny, ok for two. Bed was small.the room was clean unlike the toilet we shared with one room-that was just sad-no one cleaned it during that 5 days. Showers were shared and clean. Hotel was cheap so cant complain. Very good location. Oh- breakfast (included in price) was a coffee and a croisant in a bar so not really a breakfast but i guessitalian breakfast.

Warning: I only saw the hotel lobby, so this is a half review. The last time I was in Venice (I go there often) I was wandering around the railway station area at night and took a turn on one of the side streets and passed this "hotel". I instantly did a double check and had to return and peer inside. It was so horrible looking, I could not believe my eyes. It looked like something from a gangster movie, tucked in a small alley, looking dated and old with no mantainance in the last 20 years. Actually it looked plain scary and seedy. A small dark mustard/brownish coloured reception area looked filthy. I did a lot of staring as there was no one at the reception desk and the door was wide open. There were strange types lurking around so I eventually took off, but not before I wrote down the hotel's name and googled it as I returned home. As I saw how high the prices could be and the bedroom photos, I figured you'd be better off spending the night on the train station; or go to Mestre to find something else, if Venice was absolutely occupied. I'd pay a maximum of 20 euros for the room! If so..

I totally agree with iFung. How can it call a one-star HOTEL!! This is the worst HOTEL I have ever been. Don't be fooled by the beautiful photos on its website. If you book a room with shared bathroom, it's totally different. About 20 rooms in the hotel and shared only 3 shower rooms. One is without lock. They put 3 folder beds in a single room(general size of other hotel) and called that a 3-bed room. They let me even don't want to go to Venice again!!!

well, I totally agree with dana9880.
We stayed at this HOTEL for 3 nights. I really don't know how it could be a hotel. I think it's overrated, in my opinion, it's not even a guest house or hostel.... It really bad! We went to Hotel Marte to check in and we didn't don't that they have 2 hotel. We were assigned to stay in HOTEL BIASIN. We have to cross the bridge from Hotel Marte. The old lady was at the reception, she even doesn't know what she is doing about. I have to remain her and calculate the room rate for her. When I asked her questions, she replied me "I am tired, there's so many tourist for today". I don't expect any service from this HOTEL, but I didn't expect such reply! There's no staff at Hotel Biasin, the hotel door is always open and there's only one CCTV placed at the reception. Do you think it's enough? Sorry, I don't think so. Anybody can go into the HOTEL, even you are not the guest. We all so surprise when we enter to the room. The room is soooooo small , we can't leave our luggage open. No view in the room, oh yeah, there's a view "Old building wall". It just like a jail, facing the wall and you can't even see the sky from the room!!! The shower room is really really terrible! It's not a shower room. only a room with the overhead shower. very dirty!!!!! Somebody even use that "shwer room" for smoking!!! NO INTERNET in HOTEL BIASIN!!! If you want to use the wifi, you have to go to HOTEL MARTE!?!?!?! I think this hotel better mention in their web site!
