Anda Venice is a very nice hostel located in Mestre. It is a 5 minute walk to the Mestre train station and has many amenities including a bar and a few other shared spaces. There are three elevators which came in handy as we were on the top (8th) floor.
Our room had a large bedroom with separate shower and toilet rooms. It was not exactly as it appeared in the pictures but it had all the amenities that were listed. There was a large window that overlooked mainland Venice that let in lots of natural light during the day. Thick curtains helped block out the sun and bright lights from the streets below. There was a small table under the window and two stools/nightstands, one of which had four USB ports. The bed was large enough for two to sleep comfortably. There was a long bench opposite the bed and two sinks behind a dividing wall. The living area was minimally decorated but still nice with a few framed pictures, wall decorations, and a big red plastic chair in the corner. Everything was clean and comfortable but don’t expect anything fancy in terms of decoration. The air conditioning worked well and kept us cool during warm nights.
The shower had both a large round head and a wand. Each had their own temperature control which was very nice. Although the shower head had pretty miserable flow rate, the wand had amazing pressure. The only thing I truly disliked about the place were the shower and toilet rooms themselves. Both were about the same size which was nice as they were relatively large for housing only a shower or toilet and bidet. The problem was the tiles on the floor and walls were a warm gray that, combined with the cement ceiling and white LED light, made spending time in either room a bit uncomfortable.
Anda was very helpful with giving instructions on how to get to the hostel via any means of transportation and check in/check out went very smoothly at the reception desk.
Overall Anda Venice is a great bargain for those looking to save a little money and don’t need a super luxurious experience when visiting Venice. It is clean, has a nice bed and A/C and is located very close to the train station.
