Our trip to Venice was beautifully completed by staying in Alloggi Marinella. Yes, it was a bit difficult to find, only a 3 minute walk to Piazza Roma, but we took like half an hour to find it as we were not familiar with how the units were classified in Venice! But it IS really quite convenient! It is not right in the middle of where all the tourists are, but i think thats a good thing as we discover the undiscovered parts of Venice.

The hotel - while rustic looking had modern comforts that made us feel welcomed. We were pleasantly surprised to see how big the room is (considering our previous Europe holidaying experiences) and were even more surprised that there is a small living room and a backyard where we could sip wine and eat grapes and salami. Nicola and Daniel were great hosts. We will definitely want to come back here again.

The price was just above our budget, but it was worth it. :)

We stayed here in Sept 2007 and it was a very good experience.

We needed to stay close to Pizzale Roma as we had a very early flight out in the morning and needed to catch the 5am bus to the airport, but actually we found the location to be preferable to the crowds surrounding the San Marco area. It was still only around a 1/2 hour walk to San Marco, but we also enjoyed the area around the hotel and found some lovely restaurants and shops nearby.

The hotel itself was very pleasant. It isnt super fancy but it has everything you need, as well as a few nice touches like English books to borrow. And the hotel is small enough to still feel quiet and cosy.

The rooms were a good size and everything inside was comfortable.

We also found the hotel staff to be very friendly and helpful. Also because we were catching an early flight and would miss breakfast, they stocked our fridge with some water, food, and other breakfast things, which was nice.

I thought it was good value for Venice in Sept (135 euro) and would stay here again.

My partner booked this trip to celebrate his birthday and he could not have made a better choice for accommodation. It was wonderful. When we got off the shuttle bus, near, I think it was called, Piazza/Plaza Roma, it is just a few blocks away. Located in a quiet street, still in the centre, restaurants within reach, and local transport around the corner, as in boats!! We had the room 'at the attic' and it was spacious enough for the both of us, nice, clean bathroom, so we had a good night sleep. Breakfast is the Italian way, unfortunately that means only one croissant, coffee or tea, some marmelade, yoghurt but no real Italian products such as cheese or salami.... But okay, it was sufficient! We certainly would recommend this place, and would go here again! You'll love it, just as you will enjoy Venice: breath-taking!

Recommnded place to stay when visiting Venice. It off to the side of the islands but for two nights it was a great location. Close to the last stop on the vaparetto but they are building a brand new "all glass" bridge that will make it even more convenient for walking to and from in the future. Nick was very nice and welcomed me in and provided a map, carried my bags, and explained the area to me. They only have 6 rooms but it is well kept and one can eat off the floors it was so clean. I stayed in 4 different hotels during my 10 day tour of Italy and this was one of my two favorite hotels. The breakfast was nothing over the top compared to the large chains but it was sufficient for the small B and B. Very clean and and decent size room for my single price. I would stay here again if I wanted to be in the area otherwise I would try to find something a little closer to the tourism areas. It is actually walking distance from the college areas which did liven up a bit at night so that is fun and close by if your looking for restaurnats and night life its not to far. I choose this location because of the proximity to the vaperetto stops back to the train for early departure in the morning, so that was key and worth it....... Nice place, nice people, nice location. I had no issues and they were very friendly. I felt welcomed. I felt safe.
