The property could do with some tlc. Our bathroom was lacking a plug in the sink, and the wall clock needed a new battery. We had a cot in our room too, I've no idea why, but it was an obstruction that we could've done without. The staff were friendly and I loved my midnight swim in the outside swimming pool. Parking is plentiful. The bus into Venice is a short walk away and the journey doesn't take long.

Lovely little, I assume family run, hotel. Had the best sleep there and rooms were generally quiet. Fantastic pool area with its own ‘beach’ Great for families. Only downside was that the shower needed a really good clean.

A hot and sticky stay.

The grounds of the property were great and the customer service was good and rooms were clean. The problem was the AC or lack of AC in the rooms, they have it locked so you can’t turn it down and it was so hot in the rooms that my family couldn’t sleep. I had chosen this place because it was close to the airport and I had a 6am flight to catch.

This is a family run hotel and it feels like home. Felicia is the best and was very kind to my elderly nonna who was in a walker. There are rooms that are accessible for handicapped people so please ask for that if needed. There’s breakfast, and dinner available. You can hear outside of the room so I suggest using sleep sounds as to not wake you if you are a light sleeper. All in all I recommend this hotel. 10/10. Grazie mille!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We chose this hotel for three reasons: proximity to the airport, a restaurant on site, and air conditioning. Out of those three only the airport worked out. The restaurant was closed, because they had an event booked. The A/C did not work. When we arrived there was no staff to check us in. We waited 30 minutes for someone to check us in.

Was expecting better

2 star hotel, My room was minuscule...old style..bed against the wall. Breakfast left much to desire, and I was asked to pay in double due to an error from the receptionist. Also a lack of english skills from the hotel personnel made this situation even more frustrating to me. Luckly it was solved by gestures.

Parties for kids, no relaxing

Unfortunately the hotel was not nice and relaxing days by the pool as we thought. There were parties for kids every day and they were running and screaming until around one at night. And the walls did not silence the sound. No air conditioning. Poor breakfast. Location in the middle of nowhere, luckily quite close to the airport. The staff was somewhat okey. Would not recommend and was not worth the money.

My wife and I left at 10pm and would not return for our two night stay, I would rather pay the extra money at the Hilton than stay in this place ever, DO NOT STAY!! I cannot warn you enough, DO NOT STAY!! Disgusting and gross on so many levels! Hotels.com should not allow people to book here!

The Mother of the owner, unprofessional, rude to us client and staff. We paid for the breakfast and she didn’t have on her list, we explained, showed her the total with the breakfast, she would keep asking if we had paid the breakfast (at least 3 times). On our way out of the hotel, she send the staff (who was under training) to our car twice to ask again if we had pay the breakfast. The breakfast was very poor. The coffee machine wasn’t working, no butter and etc… she was very unprofessional. the situation was very embarrassing and uncomfortable
