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.

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.

This was a pleasure for us the Stay in the Hotel. Smart type hotel with codes to get in and for room. This said they had great service with rooms being cleaned every day and breakfast. In tube the the charm of Venice. Quieter side of Venice but with Water bus and taxi’s available short walking distance. Great Job to everyone and highly recommend.

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 was on a quiet canal with what felt like a unique hidden door. The room was very large and comfortable. Communication in English via What’s App was very timely and helpful. It was nice to be able to drop our luggage at 7 am and spend the day in Venice before check in

The worst
Before arrival, I responded to the hotel's request and sent personal information by e-mail, but he asked for the same information over and over again without reading it. I was asked to pay the city tax, and of course I was going to pay it, but from check-in time to check-out time, I haven't seen any employees at the hotel, so I couldn't pay, so I checked out and paid the city tax by e-mail. It's a crime not to do it, and they threaten to report it to the police and the airport. Of course, I paid the city tax electronically later, but the atmosphere of Venice that I visited for the first time in 35 years was very good, but I chose a disappointing hotel.

My wife and I spent a night before returning to the US and we were extremely pleased. My only issue was that they had already switched the Air conditioning to heating since it was mid October and the room was a little warm. However after opening the windows for a while it was very comfortable. The room we got was HUGE with lots of room to move around especially packing for our return. Very close to Piazzale Roma and about a 7 minute walk to the train station. Not the most glamorous location but very safe. Killer wifi speed and extremely quiet. Would definitely stay there again.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I would not suggest staying at this SMART property. Orbitz sold us a room that would not accommodate our family, even though we included it in our search criteria. The hotel wanted to immediately uncharge us and would not be flexible with customer service to cancel our reservation. This was definitely NOT ideal. Maybe if you are young and traveling through europe it would be a good fit.
