This hostel located in Cannaregio district
in Venice
Is it a good place to stay

fossil - have you looked at any of the hostel booking websites on the net? I found this one, but there are loads of others:

it looks ok - what are you looking for?

A reasonable priced hostel & Hostel Bookers has
Arches at $39 --I have been advised on the budget
& more expensive areas of Venice accom with
Cannaregio the budget area

Ah ha!!! I have the same photo,s of Arches on hostel bookers
If fotos exact it looks nice!!!!

that's good, fossil.

but why not read the reviews on some other sites too, before you book?

There's merit in what you say and I do
I have 4 different hostel sites and one
hotel site tho the one I just looked at I
used ion last 4 journies to Mexico &
Central America ,Africa ,Sth America
then Eastern Europe
Well over 150 hostels with no hassle
on any of them
After saying that good ones are on
several sites

sounds good, fossil.

are you going to book?

It's first in line but May a long way off just yet
Tho I booked apartment in Sorrento for first
week at €104 for 3 nights a month back
Apartments in same complex now €234
So sometimes early bird does get the worm

fossil - does the hostel website offer the same type of free cancellation terms that are available on sites like booking.com?

if so you could book now and then look for something better/cheaper nearer to the time.

Actualy the Sorrento apartment with
Booking .com who are good !!!!
I had to leave Saigon early to fly home
to be with a dying friend and I canceled
Nha Trang with Booking.com with no
cancelation fee

that's good, fossil.

sorry about your friend.
