The location is convenient if you are looking for a stay off the island. The hostel (not apartment) is located next to the Mestre station and there's a bus route right around the corner which takes you to Venice in 10 minutes.
The bathroom is shared, hence may have to wait in line if the bookings are full.
There's a complimentary breakfast that's provided and a cheerful Riyadh may greet you and provide you valuable guidance for your time in Venice.
But our highlight was the Italian seafood restaurant Bepi, right around the corner,which we happened about. Don't miss that out, if you are staying here.
