    Nice & friendly. Loud at night (rooms facing the piazza). They should be more careful with the passports they collect from guests. When we arrived there was nobody at the desk, but a pile of passports from other guests lying on the desk. Anyone could have walked in and taken them.

    would never stay here again. The room was dirty and something out of a horror film. The lights went out ever 30 mins and had to reset the fuse. On a better note the location was amazing. lido island is quaint and a good retreat from venice's main island.

    have to use the vaperotto to get to the city centre (15 min wonderful journey) )which is 6.50 euro each trip or get a 24 hrs pass for 18 euro. Fantastic view from the hotel and very close to the beach. nice family managing the hotel; best hostel we stayed in italy.

    Cute hotel right on the water's edge in Lido. Nice to stay on a smaller island away from a lot of tourists but the boat ride takes 15 minutes to San Marco and the tickets aren't cheap. We enjoyed our stay.

    for some reason, they switched us to a different hotel, from 3 stars to 2 stars.. the Hotel Reiter. This place had lots of ants in the room which only came out at night..

    We were moved from the original hostel to another affiliate which was much further from the waterbus stop on Lido island.

    La moquette e la carta da parati sono vecchie e quindi sporche, tutto ha un po' un'aria decadente. La biancheria però, da letto e da bagno, era molto pulita. Per il prezzo che si paga e la comoda location è un'ottima opportunità per viaggiatori con piccolo budget e poche pretese.

    A 3 star hotel with a very friendly staff. Neighbors the vaporetto station and it's close to supermarket (billa), pharmacy and lots of snack shops. Really good if you're gonna stay long enough for making the 3-days tickey 33 euro) worth.
