Fodor's Review:
This small hotel, close to San Marco, is at the junction of three canals much used by all manner of Venetian watercraft. Although they are endlessly fascinating to watch, here you take the good with the bad -- the passing gondolier at sunset travels the same waters as the buzzing water taxi at dawn. Rooms differ in size, and climbing up to the fourth floor (no elevator) wins you a better view. The decor is typical of Venetian hotels -- a mix of Murano chandeliers, 18th-century-style furniture, exposed ceiling beams, and beds lacquered in pastel shades.
