Great area, right on Stada Nove - the main street that runs through the area. Hotel staff was very helpful and articulate about everything we needed to know. Our room was not in the same building as the hotel office. After checking in, one of the staff led us across the street and down the block. Our room overlooked the main street, with windows and shutters that opened. The room was small, but it was very clean, with a nice bathroom. The mattress was not the thick mattress with foam, etc, that us Americans are used to. It was a thin mattress on a wood frame, but it was comfortable. We were happy with every aspect of staying there, however. Pros - clean, good neighborhood, good staff. Cons - Small room, refrigerator did not work, thin mattress. When we go back to Venice, we will stay at the same hotel.
