Better, I suppose, if you get the deluxe room
Don't get the budget room. Hardly room for the bed, none at all for sitting or walking. The table is propped in a corner on two legs. Touch it and it wants to fall over. Minuscule shower, don't even think about washing your feet. Two electrical outlets, one high up on the wall opposite the bed with nothing to support what you've plugged in unless you have a very long cable and want to risk the table; the other behind the bed. The outlet is not securely attached and often falls from the wall. And if you move in your sleep you will turn the lights on in the room. The light switch is in the same housing as the outlet. Meager breakfast, not the usual copious Italian fare. But the location was perfect. Two minute walk to the bus and you're in Venice in fifteen. A ten minute walk to the train station. If you stay here, spend the extra and get a better room... I suppose.

Horrível
Tivemos problemas na chegada. O check in inicia-se às 15:00 horas (tarde se compararmos com outros hotéis) e o check out deve ser às 10:00 horas (cedo em relação aos demais). Chegamos às 14:15 horas. Fui cumprimentar a senhora que estava na recepção e ela, friamente, me disse que eu tinha que aguardar o horário do check in ao lado de fora do hotel (!!!) porque o chão estava sendo limpo e eu não poderia pisar ali (!!!) e nem era possível deixar as malas na recepção. Nunca vimos isso em lugar nenhum. Fomos ao supermercado e voltarmos no horário do check in. A moça que nos atendeu também não fez questão de ser simpática. Nos deram um quarto de solteiro, com camas separadas. Liguei na recepção, pedi para mudar de quarto mas ela nos disse que não era possível devido a lotação. O banheiro era de acessibilidade. Nada contra, porém, a ducha era para cadeirante daquelas que só se usa com a mão. Meu marido teve que improvisar e apoiar a ducha no porta shampoo para usarmos como chuveiro. Como o jato era fraco, não puder, se quer lavar os cabelos. Café da manhã ok, porém, a senhora que fica nessa área tratava os hóspedes com constrangimento não permitindo que se sentassem em qualquer mesa, tinha que ser na que ela queria. No segundo dia eu também fui impedida de sentar na mesa que escolhi. Ela não deixou pois estava ajeitando as mesas para o jantar (!!!). Hotel horrível, staff horrível, instalações horríveis! Não recomendo!!!

Being Abused
We arrived about 12PM, before check-in time, but the front door was open. No one at desk and lobby empty. The maid appeared and only spoke Italian, indicating that the check-in was at 3pm. We and 2 other ladies, who had just arrived were trying to communicate to her that we should at least leave our bags in storage. She then called someone, and another woman arrived from the hotel across the street. She was speaking in Italian, and all I understood was "partir" and POLICIA! I didn't need a dictionary to understand that she threatened to call the Police if we did not leave! Then she said in perfect English, "If you don't respect the rules, I have to call the police. You cannot stay in the lobby". We didn't expect to stay in the lobby for 3 hours, just wanted to store our bags until check-in. She finally “generously" allowed us to leave the bags at the opposite hotel (4 Euros) and come back later to check in. A waste of a day. Checking out, the clerk didn't even look up from his desk, but Grunted when we dropped off the keys. Every hotel on our extensive trips to Europe has either allowed us to check in as much as 3 hours early as the rooms were readied, or, allowed us to store our bags..FOR FREE! So check the reviews. So,If you want a pretty crummy hotel, that offers NO service, and is willing to waste your whole day, then treat you like a piece of dirt upon leaving, then the City of Art Venice Lloyd hotel is for you, unless you like losing time and money, then go elsewhere

I knew check-in was at 3pm but i arrived at around 1:30pm expecting at least someone to be manning the desk to store my bags like in every hotel i have been to, so i could go to venice central and check in later......but no. I waited around till 3pm in the heat. As for the the room..where do i start?. It was soooo tiny, the only table in the room was narrow and shaking. The only way i could charge my phone was to make a makeshift table using a chair and putting my suitcase on top then place my phone on top because the wall plug was on the otherside of the room...very bad room design!!!!. Little ventilation in the bath room with flys all over the room. The room had a feeling of a underground bunker. As for hotel food you had to go across the road to another hotel to dine. Only postive was it was very close to venice mestre stn where you get a train to venice central or the aerobus to both venice airports.

Reception looks good but rest of hotel needs a refurb. Our room (queen size bed) was clean but like everywhere else would be better after repainting. We could see other rooms had problems with window blinds that had not been fixed for months. Breakfast choice was poor but quantities ok. Overall - cheap but not too cheerful.

Pros for location, 24h front desk (what appears to be out of the place in Italy) and helpful service. Apart from that not much to say: claustrophobically small room, cracked walls, awful bed and a rotten by mushroom bathroom.

A nightmare
Not a good experience. There were not many facilities and most of what was there didn't work e.g. the TV and the hairdryer. It's well placed for the train station but it must be the most noisy location on the planet. Both myself and the friend I travelled with hardly slept a wink - DON'T GO THERE!

The location is the only good thing
We booked this Hotel for our stay in Venice but it was really disappointing, The room size was very small, no storage space and smoking smell. we couldn't even slept well due the the light that was flashing at the night. On the bathroom we found a potentially dangerous tube on the shower box with no protection and my friend hurt itself. All the walls were full of cracks and thin so you can hear everything that is on going the next room. Only the lady at the reception the first night and the breakfast staff were nice, otherwise the others were unfriendly. We asked to change the room but the staff said that is fully booked. At the check-out time we asked to store our staff and they men at the reception said that they did not keep the luggage and we have to go to the opposite hotel, and they asked 1 euro per bag, is not for the money but for the principle that the hotel should keep the bags for free.

Very good location if you don't want to stay in Venice and very close to the train station in V. mestre and 5 minutes by train from Venice. There were lots of noisy Asian guests and we could hear everything because of the quality of the walls. Apart from that the hotel is ok.

Expect what you pay for
The hotel itself wasn't terrible, ideal location (distance wise) from Venice but the area was not the nicest and if you are planning on coming back late, it is a slightly scary short walk from the bus stop. Room size was highly disappointing, no storage space and extremely small. Walls are paper thin you can practically hear the conversations going on in the room next door, one night we were kept awake for around an hour by the man next door snoring incredibly loudly.

Bed bugs
Eaten alive by bed bugs, room smelt strongly of a horrid chemical that i assume was to kill these insects. Checked out early after 1 night and paid to stay somewhere else. When we checked out we noticed the staff had left the room master keys unattended on hotel lobby counter so anyone could have walked in and stolen from any of the rooms. Hotel appears to be in a rough area of town, buildings nearby were either derelict, in a state of disrepair, or with security gates blocking access. Hotel room was small, very very basic, with a heavy steel security door, and a steel roller shutter on the window despite being on the 2nd floor. The view was of pigeons coming in and out of the derelict buildings collapsed roof. Worst hotel experience of life so far, like no other 3 star hotel i have ever seen, i have no idea how or when it was last considered 3 star. The art was just a cheap silly distraction from the experience. Never again.

Location location location
The best part of this hotel is the location, right next to the train station is perfect as it only takes ten minutes to get to Santa Lucia. The bed is comfortable enough but the top sheet is very scratchy. Bathroom was nice but the shower had a slight mildew problem. When they say check in is at 3pm they mean that no one is getting into the hotel until 3pm, even if you checked in the day before. There is no luggage storage and you have to go over the road to get let in if you are a stop over returning in the middle of the day. I didn't have the breakfast here and I was sent across the street to their other hotel for dinner as I was a solo diner. Slightly upsetting. The walls are as thin as paper so best bring ear plugs. It's fine for a couple of nights if you are on a budget, but don't expect luxury.

Excellent location for a budget hotel
We stayed in this hotel for overnight. The location is excellent, only a couple of hundred meters away from the Mestre train station. Bus stop of No 6 or 6L bus to Venice Main Island is just in front of the hotel. There are buses from the a bus station next to Mestre train station to the two airports at Venice. No kettle. Want drinking hot water? Cross the road, pay one euro for half litter. The price is alright compared with other hotels at Venice. You pay for what you receive.

Got this room due to price and included breakfast. Really REALLY wish I would have just paid more for anything else. I could handle random stains so thick the substance was still caked on the curtains, and other various lacks of effort on the part of the cleaning staff. What I can't handle are ants, and spiders (many spiders!) and ROACH (just saw one thankfully) in our room! Terrible experience.
