cons: * rooms in this hotel vary dramatically in sizes. unfortunately the one that we stayed in was incredibly small: besides furniture and bathroom there is about 4 sq meters extra in total. * the thermostats in my room doesn't work, and we were frozen one night (with A/C on) and sweating the other night (with A/C off). * one... more

The best part of Domus Cavanis is the location. It's so close to the vaperetto stop, bridge, and museums and tons of other sights and restaurants.
