328 Il Veliero Romantico

The lady waited outside for me at check-in, which was great since I was lost and unsure where to go. She didn’t speak much English, but she was super friendly. The place felt more like a dorm than a hostel, and I had a fantastic stay. You go through several doors and a gate to get in, which made it feel much safer. The bed was comfy, the room and bathroom were very clean, and the location was nice. Highly recommend!

I’ve stayed here twice and felt comfortable both times. It’s basic, but has what you need for a short visit to Venice, especially if you’re travelling solo. The rooms and toilets are very clean, and both a large and a small towel are provided. Coffee, tea, and pastries are also left for guests. I slept really well on both visits. It’s on a quiet street, about five minutes from Piazzale Roma (bus station) and around ten from the train station. The price is affordable, and communication by mobile phone works very well. I recommend it.

The host was lovely. She didn’t speak English, but we managed to get by, and she left a little pastry each day, which was a nice touch. My private room was simple and very clean, and the bed was actually really comfortable. As a solo female traveller, I felt the area was perfect: a quiet side street, safe but central, with the bus and train station less than a ten-minute walk away. Major attractions are within walking distance too.

The host gave helpful tips for exploring the city, and the staff were friendly. I also really appreciated having AC. The place was comfortable, clean, and safe, on a quiet, sweet street near the train station. I highly recommend staying here on a Venice trip.
