This is a pretty basic, functional two-star hotel that doesn't pretend to be anything else. The staff are very helpful and pleasant and the rooms are clean and reasonably well equipped. The real benefit is the location. A two minute walk and you're at the T1 tram stop (tickets from the tabbachi) which is 15 minutes from the heart of Venice. There are a few smaller restaurants and bars near the tram stop, but a ten minute walk the other way, over the main bridge and there's what looks like a converted train platform with several really nice, modern bars and restaurants. On-site parking is limited so be sure to email ahead to reserve one. We wanted somewhere convenient for a two night stay and this was perfect. But if you want longer and have young children to amuse, maybe not so?
