The place was right next to a bunch of nice restaurants which made finding places to eat convenient. They also served reasonably priced food and drinking in the place itself. It is located right next to the waterbus so getting to the main island was quick and easy.

Because of the schedule for the waterbus you're only able to stay out until around 12 if you want to spend a night out on separate islands. This isn't a huge issue since there is a reasonable amount to do on the island itself but if you make any friends outside of the place it can be a little awkward. I'm not lowering the score of the venue for this as that would be a bit unfair but it's worth keeping in mind. At the place itself, with the amount of people on the floors there aren't many showers or bathrooms so you have to get up early or late to avoid potential queues for the facilities.

I liked the location of the hostel. It was not on the main island, but not far from it either. I checked in at 1am - quite easily reaching the island on #2 at that time and had the help of the guy at the reception. The paid breakfast was of good quality. They also have a water filter I wish I’d known on day one.

The automatic lights in the toilet which switch off when you’re the only one in the toilet and taking a shower in the cubicle. You must step out of the cubicle to get it switched on again. I also wish they had hooks in the cubicle to hand towels and clothes. They could also attach some curtains to beds to provide more privacy when asleep.

I got an female dorm with private bathroom, and the bathroom and room itself was fantastic, with a window with a view straight out on to the water. The place itself is also pretty good in terms of boat transport, in that two piers are nearby and the boats come regularly. Plus the views in general are good, you just leave the building and it's water right there immediately, very nice to stare out at. The hostel itself has plenty of nice seating and indoor lounging areas.

To note that this is on a (fairly empty) island, and so if you don't have a day/all transport ticket (which costs 50-something euros for three days), you're going to be spending around 20e a day just for the trip out to the main Venice area and the trip back, as the boats to get here have a flat 9.5e rate per trip no matter how far/near your destination. If you've a lot of luggage, to note the lift only goes up two floors and you will need to carry it up the stairs past that.

Excellent location, quiet and we'll connected to the main part. Staff was super friendly and the rooms were quiet and well conditioned if a bit crowded. But it is to be expected. Well worth it for my intended purposes. Quite a few bathrooms too. You can stay after midnight and just ring the bell and present your room card and you're in! You get a clean, comfy bed, convinient nightlight and a socket. Gorgeous building too! And the view, ah the view.....100 worth it! Best price too! Didn't book breakfast? Not to worry, you still can, or just order your cappuccino and a snack from the reception. And just sit outside and marvel at the sight! Beware of seagulls tho! They are little thieves!

Rooms can feel a bit stuffed if you are in the middle.

Lovely room, absolutely LOVE the lounge area, good vibes, great furniture, lots of things to eat. Many affordable eats nearby too on Giudecca. If the water bus is running, it would be really near to San Marco or to the Venice Biennale area. Gorgeous views too!

The hostel is on an island OFF of the mainland where the only way to get there is boat. Only book if you're planning to get a water bus pass. There was also a strike on one of the days I was there, making it really hard to get on the mainland due to no public transport services - some had to pay 50 euros for a water taxi off the island!

Let me start by location. I rated it as a good one because it wasn't looking for first hand access to the main attractions of Venice. Actually it was the opposite, I enjoyed the peacefulness of the island (Giudecca), and also the beautiful views of the city. Also the hostel is facing the lagoon and you can take a seat at the hostel terrace and enjoy the views of Venice. You need to take the vaporetto anytime you want to move away from the island but this wasn't an inconvenience for me. For those that demand quick access to the busy and crowded city centre, maybe this is not the place to stay. The room was a big one for 15 or so people, in a bunks room. Space was a bit tight but the bed was better than I expected. Underneath the low bed there are two boxes lockers, one of each bunk bed, without a key. Bring your own one. The space to manage with this drawer isn't great. As I was saying, the space around the bunk was tight and there wasn't any hook to hang the towel, This annoyed me. Cleaning was okay and bed comfy considering that you are sleeping in a bunk bed. Socket and bed light for each bunk Ground floor and reception area is quite nicely decorated, with different options to take a seat, have a drink and so on. There is a kitchen service and you can order dinner for instance, Local supermarket is about 5' walk if you want fresh food, ready to eat, fruit, etc,. There are no kitchen facilities in the hostel where you prepare your meals. There are a few restaurants close to the hostel in case you are looking alternative options. Nice terrace facing the lagoon,this is great.

Bathroom facilities are basically not enough for all the guests. Each room has allocated a bathroom, one for each gender. Basically this is not enough for all guests. Male bathroom has two showers, two toilets, and one basin. This is absolutely not enough and what this intense use makes is that the cleaning is quite difficult to maintain unless twice cleaning services is provided. There are toilet facilities, free access, on the ground floor so in some way you are safe in case you are in an emergency situation when you need a toilet toilet

The place was so perfectly placed, you could see the piazza st. Marco and so much of the city from the hostel. the waterbuss was super easy to take from there. the staff was also so helpful, especially this one african guy in the reseption. I also loved that the reseption was open 24/7 and the whole place gave a hotell feeling. They also had free and good drinking water in a fountain you could drink.😁

I booked the wrong date and did not get a refund, but this was not the hostels fault. And they did what they could to help me. A little sad that I could not bring food from outside, but the food there was cheap so it wasnt really any problem. Also the bathroom wasnt super clean, but that was mainly because of other guests.

I think the hostel had been recently renovated and looked clean and modern. We picked it because it was one of the few ones that was affordable, accessible and had a private bathroom. The room was reasonably spacious, although the beds' positioning meant we hit our feet on the bed legs quite a few times. The location was excellent, as although not very central, it was very close to 2 vaporetto stops. There were also a few shops nearby and an excellent small pizza place, all within easy walking distance. Staff were excellent, very friendly and accommodating.

The walls were fairly thin between rooms, so on the first night we could hear our next door neighbours until quite late (luckily I packed earplugs as I'm a light sleeper). Also the walls had a window at the top for some reason, which would still afford you privacy, but that meant that when the next door neighbours kept their light on we were able to see it. Also with it being a hostel, each bed had its own little light around the headboard and the switch was placed so poorly that each night I'd turn it on a few times while turning in bed. Another thing I found weird is that you had to "hire" towels at reception for Eur5.

The room was adequate, the atmosphere and cosiness of the lounge, the staff were exceptionally informative and friendly.

The temperature of the room and the lounge was a tad excessive - it was very, very warm. I'm sure that would please most people but it was too much for me!

This place is full of life and the perfect base to experience the vibrant spirit of Venice! The atmosphere is energetic and welcoming, with a great mix of travelers and a location that puts you right in the heart of the action. The decor is fun, the common areas are lively, and it’s easy to meet people or just relax and take in the charm of the city. The only downside was the limited number of bathrooms. At peak times, it meant waiting a bit, which wasn’t ideal. Adding a few more would make the stay even more comfortable. That said, the overall experience was fantastic, and I’d definitely stay here again—just with a little extra patience!
