Perfect for us

This place exceeded our expectations. Conveniently located with restaurants, cafes, shops and attractions just metres away. A beautiful old building with a friendly feel, we enjoyed the balcony overlooking the main street where everything happens. Special mention goes to staff at reception and ladies preparing fresh breakfast. Highly recommended.

Das Hotel liegt in einer Strasse in Getsemani und alles ist gut zu erreichen. Trotzdem ruhig. Das Zimmer war vielleicht sauberer als es aussah oder mir vorkam. Mein Fenster ging zum Fruehstucksraum, daher habe ich die Vorhaenge die ganze Zeit geschlossen gehabt. Zum schlafen okay...Badezimmer oben offen und auch zu dem Raum; ist nicht sehr angenehm. Fuer ein Zimmer mit drei Betten ist das Badezimmer sehr klein. Auch so gerade ausreichend. Nicht sehr flexibel bei Aenderungen der Buchung; aber ich konnte meine Koffer bis abends im Hotel lassen. Touren und Services (Massage, Manikuere etc.) werden angeboten. Tresor und Kuehlschrank im Zimmer, Terrasse und das Fruehstueck wurde frisch zubereitet.

Perfecta ubicación !!!

La ubicación es perfecta, muy cerca De la Torre del Reloj, el hotel cómodo sin lujos pero con lo necesario para pasarla bien. El desayuno de una sola opción pero sirve para empezar el día. Lo único que no advierten es que hay que subir gradas bastante pronunciadas ya que el hotel está en un segundo piso ... y sin ayuda subir la maleta fue toda una odisea !!! Hay muchos servicios de restaurantes y supermercados donde comprar lo necesario En fin ... repetiría la experiencia de alojarme en Balcones de Venecia ...

Pros: Excellent location and great price. Cute decor. Cons: No hot water — though the lukewarm water was sufficient in the hot weather. The room did include AC, but they don’t give you the remote to control it. Also, I stayed for 3 nights, and my room was never cleaned and I was never given any new towels. Also, the windows in my room did not fully close, allowing mosquitos to get in and I got a ton of mosquito bites.

Lugar muy feo.

Quiero comenzar con algo positivo, la atención de los empleados es buena. Lamentablemente, el lugar es muy feo, hay hostales que por la tercer parte de lo que vale este ofrecen mejores condiciones. No lo recomiendo para nada.

Hotel with character, well-located, nice roof-top terrace bar. Could do with better light and noise-proofing as the rooms overlook a very noisy square with nocturnal goings on until very late.

Very nice rooms

Nice place, good location close to center, nice staff, trying to help as much as they can. No hot water at bathrooms. There are too many staff members that are involved in everything you need, we got a very weird feeling after paying for 3 nights and the day after we got a receipt for 2 nights and different amount...

El hotel en general no me gustó,en tres días no limpiaron mi habitación,todo es muy chico, la luz del baño funciona a sensor ( en medio de una ducha y te quedas a oscuras,por ejemplo)rescato la buena atención y predisposición de la sra Liset ( creo que se llama así) por la mañana atiende la recepción,teléfono,prepara desayuno para los que allí se alojan y además limpia. Solo se accede por una escalera empinada y mi habitación estaba pegada a la recepción.

Simple clean room in great location!

Good clean room. Friendly staff. Upgraded to a bigger room after my first night but no complaints obviously! Staff are very lovely and approachable and happy to book tours etc or give you local info. Only thing they could improve on is daily housekeeping wasn't always the case (they aim to be environmentally friendly with towel/sheet changes). They provide a laundry service for a small fee. Breakfast was simple but included which was nice. If you want a clean room in a good location this is the place for you! I decided to stay a couple extra nights here which was great!
