I had a hard time finding this place but when I got there, I was not very happy about what I saw. I went up to the third floor (second floor in Europe) to pay, and the guy told me he was going to have me stay at a different location. At first, I wasn't sure what to think, but I went with it and it was worth it. I really liked the location I was at. It was pretty central but not on the primary beat and path (perfect!) There was a young woman that seemed to be the primary person working there, and she was pretty nice, and she kept the place really clean. I stayed in a 4 woman only room, and had it to myself all but one night! It had a little dressing room and a large bathroom attached, it was pretty sweet. But warning, you may see a washing machine in the pictures, it's for staff use only!
The hostel is situated in a great location. It's only a five-minute walk to San Marco. Except from the bathroom, the hostel is really clean. Whereas the staff is horrible. We booked a 3 female-bedroom and spent the night with 5 people in a tiny room. To sum it up: if you stay one night, this place is alright. If you stay longer, stay somewhere else!
This is a last resort only. It is on Venice island which is great, however, it is really an apartment, it isn't setup properly for paid accommodation, there was only 1 bathroom for 10 people, the individual rooms do not have propper locks, it isn't particularly cheap. In addition, while it isnt really their fault a group young idiots were staying and made heaps of noise until 3 am. They were obnoxious and generally made the place even worse for us.
Booked this hostel thinking it was a dorm type hostel, but got a flat in Venice. Had a difficult time actually finding the hostel once in Venice. The hostel has a good location, about a 10 minute walk to San Marco. Although, had a hard time getting a hold of the hostel owner, e-mailed him and never got back to me. And, we didn't get wifi, although I paid to "unlock the wifi". And If you want to meet people, not a great place to stay. All in all, I don't think I would stay here again.
