"The location is the best. It’s where all the gondola ride starts. You definitely have to book a canal room so you can watch all the gondola traffic so awesome. The staff is very helpful and friendly even were able to arrange a pick up for us to get to the train station. The morning. Breakfast is amazing and lots of good selections. I would definitely go here again next time you’re in Venice."
