We were told that we would get a code to check into our room after 3. We waited until 5:30-ish and still no code. I called and spoke to a lady with a crying baby in the background and told her we were sitting at the property waiting for a code. She said she would check and call us back. We never heard back from her, so I called again and she said that she had sent the email earlier, I told her again we never got an email, and asked if there was any way she could resend it. Still crying baby in background. She finally agreed to resend as we had been sitting at the property waiting and waiting to check in. Things went smoothly after that. Very nice, clean rooms! Missed our breakfast due to having to leave early bc of train strike…no refund on that….

The hotel is about a 8 minute walk from the train station. There is an elevator which is nice, and a place to store luggage. We had no problem with the Smart hotel experience. Breakfast was nice. We loved the large bed and ample lighting in the room.

Fantastic property, really historic feel BUT the AC was micromanaged by the renting organization and was not a very good experience overall due to that critical detail during a heat wave. The doors didn’t open and close properly leading to an accident on my end when the room got really really hot and I tried to open the main door so I can leave the room to get fresh air and forgot it still has the security latch engaged in leading to some framework damage. One painting fell in the main bedroom due to me falling on the floor due to heat exhaustion and my family couldn’t catch me in time. I hit my head on the concrete floor inside the room that night when I fainted from heat exhaustion. Overall the property is good property I just hope they can manage at a higher level for the amount of money they charge per night. I don’t appreciate the email accusing me of wrong doing before understanding what actually happened in my room that night. I’m asking for repair estimate so I can look at some type of repayment, they should consider giving me part of my room rent back due to the ac situation. Currently I have sharp pains in my head on the right side from the fall that took place that night in the room connected to the bathroom. I hope it’s not a longterm impact on my health. I have never had this kind of challenging experience in any of my other stays, Expedia can check my travel history. I apologize for any unintentional harm I caused their asset. I hope my health is ok long term.

This was a great choice for our short trip Venice. Very conveniently located near the bus and train terminal. The hotel is situated a very short walk from both. The room was modern and spacious with great views along the canal. The service was excellent and prompt, especially the woman at breakfast. I would highly recommend this hotel and look forward to our next visit to Venice.

The property is in a nice area quiet and well connected. I doubt i will stay again as i think there are better properties for that cost. On arrival, despite having asked to re confirm the room i has booked i found out that they had moved us. I know that sometimes there might be unexpected issues but i would expect the property to be in touch first and some sort of apologies. Instead of the canal view and two double beds there were one bed and one sofas with only a flatsheet not even covering it and a thin duvet in a room without any window and quite low ceilings. I called the smart reception and only after several conversations with expedia and a night without sleep we got moved to a different room where the sofa bed at least had a mattress. Unfortunately the walls are not soundproofed so the second night another guest didn't know how to open the door of her room and she spent two hours banging against her door until i decided to go out in my pijama and explain how to use the code. All together not an experience that i am looking forwards to repeating.

Beware-Do Not Stay Here

I checked in (remotely) and knew within the first 5 mins that I would not be staying there. The time I spent in the room(30 min max) was used to book another Hotel! I paid for a “Canal View” and was met with a view of construction, plywood and sewage water. While the room was clean it was tiny and the bed was paper thin. The main and only entry door was directly connected to a dining area (for common use) and had a large crack in it, to where you could see into the room. There was no privacy and sounds carried throughout. Overall I did not feel secure or safe in the room enough to stay. All contact with the property is contact less and instead of dealing with the hassle of “looking at their other rooms” I chose to leave and book elsewhere, Immediately! (Room view is posted in the photos. Taken on Feb. 20,2024) They should be ashamed of what they were charging for “Canal View”!
