Hostel was good. Bit far from Venice, but that didn't detract from our visit at all. Staff was not helpful when we had an issue getting from Venice to the hostel the night before, but we made it okay. Make sure to take the 6/ bus from Venice, not the 6. The 6 doesn't go as far as Padua.

Really good place if you're just looking for somewhere to chuck your bags and sleep. The facilities work and are clean, rooms are fine, small and we got very cold during the night but for the price we weren't expecting the moon! I would recommend it as somewhere to stay in Venice without all the hustle and bustle of mainland Venice.

It was a great stay, like camping but upgraded from a tent :) the location was good by bus and the facilities were really nice. Beds were SUPER comfy and it was nice to have our own cabin, even though the walls were paper thin. Definitely take advantage of the market store on the site, decent prices and perfect for breakfast on the way to the city. Would definitely stay there again!

Staff was very kind! I think it is very good place to stay, especially if it costs only 20 euro per person! Location are very good - only 20 minutes from Venice by bus (1,30 €). Thanks a lot, I really enjoyed my stay @ your place!

It will take 25 mins by bus from venezia st lucia station to there. 1,3€ for the single ticket. It might be better place for families camping. There is one stuff there not so friendly...

I understand theres camping site of course It could be happened but that bugs were under the sheet!!!!!!! so I couldnt sleep at all, I took a shower and I waited for reception(reception open from 8am,so) and I asked I dont want to stay, I paid for 1 night and then moved to other place. I said to everything but they take my money, you know what? you souldnt take my money

Good quality for a good price. We were a bit afraid about the location but there is a bus stop near by the camping and the bus goes to Venezia every 30mins from 5am till midnight (Mon - Sun). It takes approx. 25min to get to Venezia (1.3euro). A big plus is the on-site market with very fair prices (opened at least until 10pm).The staff is nice and helpful (they provide bus schedules, advice how to travel around etc...). Bathrooms are good (typical camping standard), no issues with a hot water :)

stayed in what could only be described as a portacabin sectioned in half. but the bed was comfortable, the sheets clean and the pillows were comfortable, not lumpy like I've experienced in some places. Liked the area it was situated in, which w It was only a 30 minute bus ride away from Venice so wasn't bad at all. But you have to be on the look out for the stop coming back as I did miss it once. I would stay there again but next time I would book 1 with a bathroom.For the price good value.

Located about a 30 minute bus ride from Venice proper, this is about the only way you're going to stay near the city without paying over 25 euros. Acceptable for what it is, a cheap place to stay, they have several campers set up into two double rooms, a space heater in each. The bathrooms are a short stroll away. This is located in the suburbs, so there are no businesses around to shop/eat at.

We arrived to find that all the 'facilities' like BBQ, Public Kitchen, and supermarket were closed. We were travelling on a strict budget, and kind counted on these facilities to be open so we could cook our own food. Most of the staff were kind and helpfull, one lady ignored us and talked on the phone whenever we approached her. Rooms are clean, and great for the price. Cheap to get to from the city, but we did stay in better campsites in Venice.

Owner Comment (Show)
Dear Mr Lawrence, We're very sorry about your experience. When you arrived the public kitchen was still closed because we had just opened the campgrounds for the 2013 season. However, the market and the BBQ were open for use. I never was talking on the phone, but I talked with my colleague to try to resolve the problem about the public kitchen. I advised you open our public gas stove but you replied that it didn't matter and you asked me for a discount for the inconvenience. After a cancellation without any charge for the other nights I also offered you a discount! We really do not know what more we could have done, but your input is accepted in any case. Anyway, now we have a wonderful new public kitchen for all our guests. Next time you come to Venice, it will be our pleasure to offer you our best rate so that you can experience our campgrounds in a proper way !!! Best regards Mirka Camping Serenissima
