The hotel is really bad conditions. Carpets are stained and old. Air conditioning( per description) it had it, but it didn’t work and they did not provide fans. He room was so hot couldn’t sleep. The beds are tiny more look like a cot very uncomfortable. Management was not helpful when explained the AC situation. The site should not not advertise this hotel. If there was a lower score than 1 star it will be a negative score. Very disappointed

Dirty, the Hotel old gray hair man refuses to turn on the air conditioner which clearly states on their website that the room has air conditioning. We checked out the next day and he refused to refund us the two more nights we didn't stay claimed due to the hotel policy, that is bull crap. The policy should not apply because we didn't have air conditioning and were made to sleep in a hot dirty room. Shower was tiny water leaks all over the bathroom. Beds were hard as a rock.

Faulty Towers (torri difettose)!

The whole place is run down. The room was pokey, with the ceiling looking ready to fall in. The furniture bed surround was falling apart, I did not feel safe unpacking anything into it, so we kept everything in our bags. The manager was blunt and unwelcoming. The bathroom wsd tiny with a broken shower curtain, and the plug in the sink did not work. When we used the shower in the morning, the whole bathroom flooded and overflowed into the room. The corridoors and everything about the place was in disrepair. Awful.

Me and my party had trouble finding the reception area as the area we were told to go to check in wasn't the reception area. When we called the staff to find out where to go, we talked to the receptionist who did not speak english and couldnt transfer us to anyone who could. By chance we stumbled into the reception area and got our keys. We were told there would be wifi in our room however, there was not. We asked for wifi and they told us to return at 1 am in the morning to talk with them to fix the problem. When me and my party tried to go to the hotel restaurant to use the wifi we were told to leave as they closed their restaurant 2 hours earlier than they advertised. Overall there are so many better places to stay at that this place is not worth your time, money or brain power trying to work with the unhelpful staff. I would never recommend this place at its current state and will never return to the Messner when I come back to Venice.

Half the size advertised

Pictures and description completely deceiving. Rented the quadruple room. No rail on top bunk bed and my daughter was fearful to sleep in it. Hardly any room to walk around the room. Three flights of stairs and no elevator. A complete disappointment. The TV was 10 inches, the carpet throughout the hotel was dingy, discolored and extremely old. Clerk gave us no other option and entire city was booked. Never again!! Have more pictures but could only upload 8.

This property was freezing. We were given a space heater the next night because the heat is centralized. There was black mold all over in the bathroom. The photos must be from 15 years ago or so because the bathroom did not look like it did in the photos. The corners of the floors seemed not to be vacuumed. The sheets were clean and changed each day. I highly recommend eating somewhere else. Their breakfast was €12 and was incredibly unsubstantial. A couple pastries and yogurt was all they had.
