We stayed for 2 nights. The location is great. The room is large, clean, and comfortable. The cleaning staff are friendly. However, the AC was not turned on during our first night. It was hot and the mosquitoes had a feast. After telling the manager the next morning, the AC was finally turned on. I can't imagine without AC in June, July, and August. Yes, there is no elevator. But those who complained about this had not done their homework: You have to carry your luggage around in Venice by walking up and down many bridges, etc.. Just don't bring large pieces of luggage to Venice, period.
