Grossly incompetent staff with outrages attitudes towards paying clientele. I have never stayed in a hotel where there is an intentional and direct approach in not being friendly or nice to paying customers. Day time manager was very sarcastic and mocking towards our basic requests for having some toilet paper and soap upon our arrival which were not in our... More

When arriving in Venice it took us over an hour to find the hotel, which was a little disheartening at the time however on arrival the staff were exceptionally helpful. The room wasn't amazing and didn't have a canal view like stated on the website we booked through. However it was neat and clean and all we really expected for... More

At first we were a little worried about the directions on the website, but quickly realized that they were wonderfully accurate and we found the place with absolutely no problems. We had a great room, one of the biggest in all 6 weeks we spent in Italy and Greece. There was a mini fridge, and gorgeous glass candeliers in our... More

I stayed here with my boyfriend for 2 days in July. We were doing a budget trip, so we didn't want to stay anywhere fancy and did not expect amazing accommodations. However, I think you could find a better hotel for the price than Ca Formosa. The rooms are fine but the walls are paper thin. We suffered through some... More

We reserved through the hotel's web site and confirmed via e-mail two days before arrival. When we showed up, the desk clerk seemed disconcerted and spent a long time studying the printouts we showed him of our correspondence. Finally he made a phone call, then said he would take us to the "main entrance of the hotel," which turned out... More

When making your way to Ca Formosa, be sure to have a good Venice map on hand! We arrived at the hotel door in the mid-afternoon, and were greeted with a sign that asked as to go around the corner to a different property to begin our check-in process, as no staff were available at this time at the front...

My wife,child and I found that we had booked a room with a shared bathroom by mistake. But, there are apparently only two rooms sharing the bathroom out of six in total so we thought we could get by. We then discovered that everyone uses the bathroom for the toilet and that the other room is in fact a triple... More
