Veyr modest bed and breakfast but it definitely does the trick. Got lost getting there, but it is in a great location. Close to the Rialto Bridge. The staff are nice and friendly. Cute little place to stay while in Venice.

Very friendly and gently Owner. Rooms all clean and with a very nice view in direction to Rialto mercato. It is just in the middle of Venezia and everything you want to see is in pure walking distance. We slept long one day and he kept the breakfast in the kitchen for us even though time for breakfast was over. I can really recommend this hostel!

The location is really good. Just is a pitty that there is any kitchen even for a glass of wather or some cup of tea in the winter. But in general was good.

Santa Sofia is in a great location and we had a very nice room which overlooked the street. It is clean and safe. However I wouldn't recommend it to solo travelers as it is not set up to meet people.

"NICE PLAY TO STAY".......HE WRITES!! ... but he put a bad RATING on LOCATION!! From 6 years we receive excellent rating on the position .. (we are 100 meters from the Rialto Bridge) Maybe these gentlemen wanted the room ABOVE the BRIDGE! auffffff ..--))))

The B&B is perfectly located and very clean. Our biggest issue was that there was only one bathroom between 7 people over 3 different groups of travelers and it was a bit of a struggle to get ready to leave in the morning. The street was noisy but only up until about midnight so it wasn't a real issue. The breakfast was fine and the staff were very helpful.

I REPEAT: . On hostelworl is written very very well that the bathroom is shared.!! In Venice there are also hotels with private bathroom ... but maybe you pay a little 'more' of 25 euro per person !! what do you think??

Great location, just 3 min. from Rialto bridge and market, you can walk anywhere in less than 15min. from here, including the train station. Clean and quiet, very relaxing place. My wife loved it. We would definitely stay at S. Sofia again when back to Venice.
