YHA hostel Venice is the only proper hostel in Venice! That means the cheapest accommodation you can get :) Sometimes when people say Venice they may mean the places on the mainland, like Mestre, Marghera etc.; Yha hostel Venice (http://www.hostels.st/en/italy/venice/hostel-yha_ostello_di_venezia/index.html) is in Venice city center on the island of la Giudecca and 5 mins by boat from San Marco Square; Once you get either to the railway station Santa Lucia or the bus, car station Piazzale Roma, take the boat # 42 direction Giudecca and stop at Zitelle; this youth hostel has more than 250 beds! Unfortunately (or fortunately, depends how you see it) they don't have mixed dorms so you will be accommodated in a whole male or whole female dorm. The price for a bed in the hostel starts from 21EUR, not too bad for Venice ;)
Enjoy Venezia, the gondolas, the food and the romance! read more
