La Dogaressa Guest House

The place had a great location and host was very nice and responsive with great local recommendations. Be aware you have to go up 3 floor of stairs. Big room and bathroom for Venice. I will definitely be back.

A hidden guest house in the historic centre of Venice. Quiet and peaceful despite being located 2+ floors above a busy street of bars and shops. Welcoming host who explained house rules clearly and was available in an emergency. Fridge and coffee maker were especially welcome, as was the air conditioning. There is a good convenience store nearby. Overall, a valuable mid-point between a budget hotel and an independent apartment rental. Closing the door onto the street and walking through the shade of the building's courtyard really felt like living in Venice. Some rooms have bathrooms shared between two bedrooms (ideal for families travelling together); my 'superior room' was ensuite, which as a solo traveller I welcomed.

The location was great for what we were looking for-a quick walk to many restaurants, shopping, tours, and landmarks. Be aware that check-in is limited hours and there are many stairs to climb with no elevator for luggage. The room is basic, but we were happy with our accommodations.

The room is clean, transportation is good
