I think that staying here is fine for young backpackers who don’t need a lot of space or amenities. The location is excellent, right above a gelato shop and about a 15 minute walk from St Mark’s Basilica and the Doge’s palace, and about a 5 minute walk from the Rialto Bridge. My only complaint is that the kitchen was not as clean as it was in the pictures which is fine if you aren’t cooking, but the bathroom was not great at all. There was barely any space to stand in the shower as the floor sloped at an odd angle, and it was just hard to move around. Again, it was fine for us but it just depends on your priorities!
