The location of the hotel is ok. It is on a main pathway so there are cafes and shopping close by. Unfortunately, there are several major issues.
(1) It is hard to find. The hotel has NO sign outside the building. I had to call the hotel to find the main door which has absolutely no signage.
(2) The Internet does not work very well. So the hotel staff has to reboot the system frequently.
(3) The housekeeping was not the Best Buy tolerable. They forgot to leave bath towels twice during our 4-night stay. The room was a bit dirty. I have noted dead mosquito marks on the wall. Being on water, there are a lot of mosquitoes in Venice. I think the previous occupants were quite busy chasing down mosquitoes in the room. Frankly, housecleaning should really wipe down the walls.
(4) Its night staff was particularly troubling. When I called about the missing bath towels on this past Tuesday night (Oct 1), Diego answered and asked me to pay him 50 Euros to deliver the towels. When I told him that it was not reasonable, he questioned why I did not report the missing towels earlier in the day. I explained that we just returned to the room and noticed. To say the least, it was not the pleasant memory that we were hoping for in Venice. Being from New York, I thought I have seen my share of nasty people in my life time. Diego tops them all for being unreasonable and aggressive.
