Short version: This is a quaint farmhouse hotel between the Venice airport and Venice itself. The price is reasonable and it affords you the option of staying outside the bustle of the islands, just far enough away from the airport so you don't even notice you're so close.
Long version:
Our EasyJet flight was delayed significantly, so we ended up getting to the hotel on a rainy night a little after midnight. We walked to the hotel, an easy half hour stroll, where they had prepared our room and let us check in the following morning. We we're so greatful for that because we were all exhausted. They had given us the gate code and printed a welcoming note to our room with all the information. The window and door had outside shutters that are great for making the room dark and dampening the sound from outside.
In the room were packaged cream-filled buns for breakfast, along with a pot and tea bags. Note that the stuff in the mini-fridge is for a charge, and they have beer and wine in the lobby that seems to be priced reasonably. They have a simple breakfast, from 7-11am, just next to the reception office. It even has a coffee machine that makes lattes.
The WiFi was a bit slow, but the lady at reception said that it was the service, not the hotel wireless, so it was slow for her too. She said it isn't normally.
They have animals there that you can visit too, though we were excited to get into Venice. We walked out to catch the number 5 bus, after filling up on breakfast and buying bus tickets at the reception desk, at the bus stop just on the main road.
They offered to hold our bags after checking out, which was great because we decided to go back into Venice the morning we were leaving. A short baggage pick up at the hotel, then the walk to the airport.
Overall it was a pleasure to stay at this charming farmhouse and I'd recommend it for a great Venetian vacation. read more
