Staying at this hotel was a wonderful experience. The rooms were characterful and unique, with a mezzanine floor for the bed that was great. The view of the old Venetian harbor from the window and balcony was breathtaking. Although the price was a bit high, the basic but comfortable rooms made the stay enjoyable.

My stay at the hotel was enchanting! The room, with its two-storey design and shipbuilding-looking wooden beams, offered a secure and comfortable sleep while overlooking the vibrant teal waters of the harbor. However, a mix-up led to a different room without a kitchen, albeit with a breathtaking harbor view. The location was superb, nestled in the heart of the old town with easy access to restaurants and shops. The dining experience was delightful with an array of fresh options, although at an extra cost.
