Stayed a few nights in October with a group. It is a wonderful old convent; quiet, with a beautiful courtyard. Rooms are monastic and small, but adequate, with a nice desk and shelves. However, there were some serious problems: (1) 2 of the 4 people in my group were bitten by bedbugs; (2) while you could open a door to... More

It was very great and all was very clean. I think when you want something in Venice good go here. The garden was very nice but after going there I had much of mosquito prints. The room was very big and the beds were very soft. You had to go 5minutes till Canal Grande.

There's a... More

It is a lovely, quiet monastery in the beautiful Dorsoduro area-close enough to the top sights but in an area where you can see Venetians rather than just tourists: "the real Venice" as the gondolier told me. It is on the Rio delle Eremite,... More

I don't know what the picture is of mountains that appeared on this site. There are buildings and canals all around were I stayed. For Venice this is a reasonable priced, clean and quiet place. Information can be found on the internet under Canossian Institute [ --XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-- ]. The rooms were a really nice size, with private showers. They accomodate... More
