Combo, Venezia

A hostel-style hotel in a restored convent in Cannaregio with a courtyard, a wine bar, the Crociferi restaurant and simple private rooms.

Why people love it

• Courtyard and bar. Guests mention a terrace at the front, a large courtyard with plenty of seating and a garden where one traveler took work calls.
• Staff. Several recent reviews call the staff friendly, helpful and welcoming with city and transport questions.
• Practical location. Reviewers say the vaporetto stop is steps away, the airport boat leaves from there, and there are no stairs to the ferry with luggage.
• Simple, spacious rooms. Guests mention a fridge, mugs and cooking facilities, plenty of storage, and a good gym.
• Breakfast. A guest staying for a month described the breakfast as varied.

Why they come back

"We really enjoy staying here, even though some things are showing their age."

The worst thing guests say

Basic rooms and a cold feel, plus cleanliness lapses. Two 1-star reviews in September 2026 describe a military-dormitory feel and a dismissive receptionist, and one in July 2026 calls it spartan at 120 euros a night. Others report an unsanitary room (August 2025), a moldy smell (August 2024), and in September 2022 black mold on air conditioning units. In April 2026 a couple paying about 200 pounds a night said it was a hostel, not a hotel.

Insider tips

• Expect a hostel-style property with basic beds, and check what room type you are getting.
• The airport boat and a vaporetto stop are close, so luggage is easy.
• Emails were slow to be answered, according to a September 2026 guest.
