really good stay on the canal

ample space stylish decoration private pier
the junior suite gran canal view had ample space. The decorations were stylish and clean. I was super happy to discover a private pier right outside. the hotel staff, especially enrico, gave accurate recommendations for local eateries and attractions.
the room was a bit too close to reception. i could hear most conversations. This was disruptive to my rest, especially early mornings.

convenient location venetian touch dinner reservation small bathroom dark room lack of lift
The location was really convenient. The vaporetto stop was a short walk away. the room had a venetian touch, which i liked. the staff helped me with dinner reservations, that was very cheerful.
The bathroom was small. I had little space for my things. the room felt dark. There wasn't much natural light. there was no lift, and i had to carry my luggage up some steps.

leaky shower broken stool leg
The bathroom was a real letdown. it was small and was to be in poor condition. I noticed the shower leaked and the stool leg was actually broken! noisy conditions outside bothered me a lot because the room sat above a landing area used for resupplying nearby restaurants and shops.
