What a shame. This hostel could have so much potential as it is in a great location and is in a wonderfully old building. However, the place is completely dive and awfully filthy. The showers are freezing cold and the rooms are tatty and uncomfortable. The worst thing is the service and I was verbally abused by Claudio (I asked... More

I have never been so disgusted at a stay in a hostel in my life. I have stayed in hostels all over the world and understand for a cheaper price you do pay for what you get. In hindsight, we could have stayed in a guesthouse for the same price which would have been so much better. I was travelling... More

Very very bad trip... We just come back from 5 days in that hostel and will never never never go back again. The "manager" is a bad man, to him you are nothing as soon as you have paid. He injured his employees and guests in front of us so much I would not do that to a a dog.... More

My fiancé and I just left ca contarini, and we were pretty disgusted with the quality of service here. First off, the price is extremely high for a hostel, and then when you get there, they tack on additional fees out of nowhere, and weren't able to explain it when I asked about it. It was probably some type of... More

We read many reviews, and everywhere they said, that it is difficult to find that place (any hotel). It is because that´s Venice, there everything very difficult to find even with map! BUT with this one it was... More

We stayed here at the beginning of June - when there was a waterbus strike! It took us an hour to find the hostel from the Rialto bridge, as the directions are useless unless you get dropped off at San Samuel. When we did arrive, the room was nice and spacious, we had a private double just off the staircase.... More

If you are over 25 and-or have any knee, hip, back problem ensure when you book you do not get a 4th floor room. The final staircase is a - stair way to heaven and should only be attacked with ropes and crampons. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CARRY MORE THAN 10 kgs. Breakfast s also a delight to be missed.

The location was great, but the hostel had poor service. They stated they accepted credit cards on the website used to book our room, but when we went to pay using a card they said they only took cash. They also advertised they had free WI-FI, but did not. When we asked for another sheet (we were sharing a bed),... More
