Hotel Giovannina Reviews

the location is quite good, just beside the railway station. and the shuttle bus to airport is about 10 minutes` walk.but the surroundings seem to be dangerous, maybe because there is construction site near..... facility bad.....basically only a bed.....warming not warm enough.....hot water not so hot.....the bathroom was used when i check in.....that is terrible..... btw, wifi not good......

Would have been better if there was a computer to use! The trains into venice are frequent and cheap which makes it easy to travel into and out of the city from Mestre!

Burned out lightbulbs, poor shower (water was not very warm), no common room or computers. Very good value for the price and a good choice for someone on a budget in Venice. Staff is helpful.

The shower was freaking cold! Also, there were used soap bars in the shower, and the bathroom overall was not quite clean; despite having an extra blanket, I got cold at night, because the heating didn't work properly; the staff was not very nice.

It is not the most perfect place to be in.it is so dirty, we are still asking ourselves how it is 1 star hotel with this bad smell and dirty

The rooms were freezing, the showers were cold. The staff were friendly but acted extremely strange at times. I was glad to leave. Cheap, but you get what you pay for.

need to take a bus/train from/to venice center which takes about 10 minutes. the staff were funny and kind, the room was fine but one thing that bothered me so much was the 'shower'. there's no door lock to the bathroom and the shower stall is aweful as its broken and extremely small. no hot shower either. please do something about the shower and you'll get fine reviews. :)

generally not too bad, I stayed just for one night but really unfortunately, no hot water in the whole apartment (I heard from my room mate that it was't the first day which no hot water supplied); there is also no heater in the room, very cold

water was very cold... rooms are very cold...! internet is until 11 pm just in reception. but it is cheap and well....except cold water and room.

The hotel was very handy located near an atvo bus stop (bus that takes you from and to airport marco polo) the hotel was very clean and the room was very nice for the money they ask for it, the bathroom was clean and there was hot water. I'm a backpacker and this hotel was a perfect choice.

Safe place near the mestre train station (1.2€ one way to Venise), good chinese restaurant next door. In mestre, so No fun !

This Hostel Has - No Kitchen, No Cooking Facilities, No Heating, No Computers For internet, No Heating, No Breakfast, No extra Blankets. This Hostel Has - English -speaking staff, Bad Security To Rooms, Cold Rooms, Cold Water, Vague Directions On How to get there. This is NOT in Venice Lagoon or Islands, But 9 Kilometres away, on the mainland. Only Plus: 5 minute walk to the Bus +Train stations, to get travel to Venice.

for a one-star hotel, it was exactly what i was expecting--nothing more, but certainly nothing less

The small is room and kind of dirty was not happy with the room.

It was clean, the staff was nice, but there were no mirrors in the room/bathroom, no heat, no hot water, and it was pretty far from Venice...if you're looking to travel on the mainland, it's fine because it's like a block away from the train station, and only 20 bucks a night, but the neighborhood isn't too nice to stay in, especially if you want to stay in venice.

Basic but clean

Near to the train station takes about 5 minutes by walking; easy to get to the Venice St. Lucia station (just one stop) by train. Simple room nothing fancy it's alright for staying just couple days with no better choice for budget traveler.

the directions to the hostel were vey vague and it is in a very shady neighborhood so if you show up at night be careful. My friend and I didn't know exactly where we were going and were constantly harrassed by men as we were walking around. The bathroom was very small and awkward to use. But all in all, it provided us with a night of sleep and that's all we really needed.

No hot shower, No locker room, No Fun in this hotel. If I visit to Venezia, I'll be check and book other hotel.

Didn't feel amazingly safe, only one room key for a 4 bed small dorm so the first person in picks it up from reception by only telling them your room number and then the last person out has to drop it off. That means if you're going to bed before everyone's back in the room, if you don't want to be woken up then the door needs to be unlocked. The 'ensuite' was shocking, so small and the shower drained really slowly so it leaked, then it was so small it was difficult to shower with the doors shut
