Summary of traveller reviews

Ostello S. Fosca in Venice offers a fantastic location, praised for its proximity to attractions and peaceful atmosphere. Guests appreciate the friendly staff and good facilities, including a well-equipped kitchen and pleasant courtyard. However, some recent reviews mention issues with cleanliness in bathrooms and rooms, and a lack of air conditioning can make rooms uncomfortably hot.

Excellent location, but best of all the staff was so friendly and helpful. Only thing I would add is better curtains for the shower so the water doesn’t spill onto the floor, and some floor mats to avoid slipping.

Room and ensuite were very dirty. As two young girls we felt quite unsa*e, as the locks on the bedroom and outside door were very temperamental. The wifi didn’t reach our room and after querying it twice, the issue was completely ignored. We’re glad we only booked this for one night as we wouldn’t have stayed here any longer.

Great location, though not enough bathrooms and only one shower for multipe rooms. Couldn't get wifi working (on my W11-laptop), but I'll see that as a plus cause why stay in your hostel when you're in Venice?

Hostelworld says

Ostello S Fosca is set in a great location about 15 minutes walk from Piazza San Marco, so it?s easy to explore this beautiful city on foot. Hostelworld guests say this hostel offers good value for money, saying ?there is a kitchen so you can escape Venice restaurants? crazy prices? as well as a ?great common outdoor quad where movies were played and people were hanging out?. There?s a nightly curfew of 12.30am so this place is ideal for those seeking a quiet night?s sleep after a long day?s sightseeing.
