The hotel is just several paces from the train station, three minutes to be exact according to the website. This allows guests easy access to zip around the city. Community bathroom prices are lower than others but if you are not inclined to share a toilet during your stay, room prices start at about 70-100EUR per night. This is quite reasonable considering other Venice hotels.
Staffers do take a break from the end of November through the end of January but this is to your advantage since the best time to go is just after their break when springtime in Venice is in full bloom.
