Alloggi Barbaria

Very clear instructions on how to get in the B&B then the room, we had room 3 which was functional with comfortable bed and powerful shower. The breakfast served just outside the rooms with three tables placed on a small terrace area, we ate on here every morning. Breakfast was basic just bread rolls with tea/coffee, jams etc and there was cereal and juice as well. Located on a quiet alley but gets a bit of traffic from people walking down from Ospedale. Good co-op just at the end of the road and a few nice restaurants within a five minute walk.

Wonderful stay! This is really an excellent stay all-around for Venice. Great location (easy to arrive from the airport and easy to access the whole city) , very clean and organised with necessary basic amenities. Fausto and Yii are both very welcoming and helpful with local suggestions. Would highly recommend, great value!

Fantastic hosts who make you feel like home :) This is a no-brainer in terms of cost/quality. Location is very good since it's away from all the noise and getting around to wherever you want to go takes only 15 minutes (Venice is small so no worries there). The only downside is that when you get room number 2 (there are 6 rooms in total), it's right next to the breakfast area, so if you're a light sleeper, earbuds might be a good investment.

We stayed here 4 nights and would highly recommend it. Easy to get to from Marco Polo airport. Follow the signs in the airport to 'Water Transport' for 15 mins and then buy a ticket for Alilaguna Blue Line for Ospedale at the booth facing the stop or in the airport ticket office on the way. It's 4 stops to Ospedale ( 2 stops at Murano then F.te Nove, then Ospedale ). Turn left along the promenade the right into Calle Delle Cappuccine, only a few mins walk, you can't go wrong. Fausto the Manager is great, speaks perfect English and is very helpful, as it the lady who works there too. The room is clean and big and has wooden shutters on the windows. No light enters the room when closed and the neighbourhood is very quiet. The room has a free safe and free wifi that works great. It's a 10 minute walk to St.Marks Square, which we did at 0600 three times to watch the sunrise there, if you want to see the square completely empty and a beautiful photo opportunity all around the area. Perfectly safe and crime free to do so, then get back for breakfast at 0800 ( lovely coffee ). The Castello area around the hotel is perfect, lovely bars/ cafes/ restaurants and nicely priced. All in all, a very affordable hotel and a special mention to Fausto for translating my Venetian birth / death records that I brought to find my ancestors homes. Also the lady who served breakfast was really lovely too. Would stay here again.
