2/10 Poor

Really hard to find
We took this hotel because of its great location but it took over an hour of wandering around and questioning shop owners before we found it because it is pretty hidden, the signage is bad, and the address in Expedia and the emails was WRONG. In the end we didn't even stay there. The staff - who had very poor English - took us to a small apartment a few blocks away instead. The experience was quite negative.

Location great, accommodation better. All in all, our stay was excellent. Use porter service if wagging the bag is too much, Water Taxi way too pricy.

Was a nice stay and friendly staff when you saw them. Room was clean and nice but air conditioning didn't work and made it very warm nights! Breakfast was really nice and staff were helpful. Was easy to find as I had phone maps and was a very quick walk to st marks

10/10 Exceptional

stayed here for 4 nights and loved it,
very close to everything, 5 mins walk from the rialto bridge and couple more to the st marks square, very quite hotel as its at the end of the alley, so no noise at all, room was beautiful and had a bath shower and all you need, my only fault was the air con unit was very loud at night it turns off and on every 10 mins which wakes you up and you cant control it, its on permently at night. no control switch anywhere, so when it kicks in it wakes you up. but apart from that it was fantastic, just take ear plugs and all will be well. breakfast was adequate with fresh orange juice, coffee and tea, cerial. or ham and cheese rolls etc, the lovely lady in charge will make fresh cuaisonts too. we filled up at breakfast so only bought sandwich or pizza in little shops down the alley for lunch. the bedrooms are on the top floor so lots of walking up stairs and the breakfast room is right outside the bedrooms which is odd but it works. really loved this so will definetly stay again. I give it 5 stars.

Excellent place
It was a great place to stay although it's a bit hard to find. Everything has been great, the environment, the breakfast, the room... However, there wasn't any people at the reception to help us figuring out the air conditioning while we were exhausted and tried to rest in the room.

Very good location, good price
The hotel was ok, I mean, it wasn't expensive, so we didn't expect the Palace. They offer wifi free, but if you want to have connexion you have to go to another hotel. They don't have receptionist or reception service, the cleaner did our check in, no phone connected in the room, so if you have any issue, you can't call anybody. People is nice and friendly, but the facilities and service is very poor.

Close to Arsenale :)
Nothing is far here, but when you walk all day and everywhere it's great to live central. Rooms are very clean and Breakfast is plenty, croissants fresh and warm and eggs always well cooled. You can expect your morning coffee to arrive instantly when you get noticed. WiFi had broken down during our visit unfortunately, but I didn't arrive here to work so it didn't matter. Excellent value for fit and younger traveller - there is some distance to carry your luggage if you arrive on vaporetto and stairs to climb to you room, so maybe not so suitable for elderly.

interesting to say the least
after finally finding the place, we went to another location to check in and then got our keys. it is about a 15 minute walk from the nearest water taxi. if you are in a hurry, this is not the place for you to stay. after a flight of stairs we reached the top floor. the unit is basic as it is in a 1500 year old building. breakfast was ehh and there is no real rush or sense of urgency to get things out in a timely manner. everything here is on a different time frame. slow and slower. but hey, it is Venezia after all and shouldnt rush a good thing. It was interesting and exciting all at the same time.

Should listed as a B&B.
Room was big enough, but having no en-suite and having to walk through breakfast room in mornings to get to shower and toilets was pretty average. Beds were uncomfortable and hard, and you could hear room next door as walls are very thin!! Having to firstly find your hotel, and then be greeted by a sign to find another hotel to pick up your key was really frustrating, especially as there is a reception. You have to climb a fair amount of steps, and as we were not told where the lights were on our arrival to room, climbing the stairs in the dark was horrific!! One of the other guests showed us in the morning where the timer switch was. To be fair, the lady that does breakfast was very hospitable, and worked hard to keep everyone happy. Tip for anyone who does stay - take mosquito spray, as we were eaten alive in the night! Would not recommend this to any of our friends.

perfect for adventurous family of four :)
This hotel was perfect for our needs. A clean bed in a centrally located part of Venice with a suitable breakfast in the morning. This is not luxury- but it is a fine basic place. The family running the hotel is kind and accommodating.

Deceitful description
My biggest peeve with this hotel is the deceptive (not to say OUTRIGHT LYING) description. Firstly, we booked a King size bed room and got a tiny double. Secondly, the description says wi-fi is available and complimentary. This is an outright lie. There's no wi-fi at Ca Formosa. The owners offered us to go to their other property in order to use wi-fi. How convenient is that? Other than that, it is extremely hard to find this hotel; it is literary hidden and signage is extremely poor. The only thing that saved our stay is the breakfast. The lady who cooks and cleans the room is very tidy and their coffee is probably the best coffee we had in Italy. A big hand to her, and a big frown to the deceiving owners.

Budget rooms
Some rooms are in the attic of the hotel and ceilings are very low. If you're over 6 feet tall, you might hit the head to the ceiling.

A beautiful place and a perfeckt stay.
I can not put a complain to anything...Trendy and special in an old stile. Comfotable and beautiful room with a lovely bathroom, and the service was splendid... The manager even picked us up on a busstation in "the middle of nowhere", after we had gone on a wrong bus from Venize. (Rigth bus is nr 5..)

Terrible experience, do not book economy room!
My girlfriend and I are both backpacking Europe, Venice is expensive full stop so we knew, we booked Ca Formosa based on the positive reviews, description and the price. We thought we were getting a good deal (76euro p.n) on a good room. We've stayed in economy rooms before and they're not that bad, but this was terrible. It was literally an attic! I couldn't walk in half the room out of fear of hitting my head on the roof. None of this was in the description at all. When we took this up with the manager he pretty much said too bad this is what you booked. He was totally unprofessional, rude and actually yelled at us. Funny that considering we booked Ca Formosa yet actually stayed around the corner in Ca Malipiero. We were told this is the room because they're sister hotels. So how could that be the room! False advertising???? This put a dampener on our Venice experience, such a shame. We will also never use this website again.

Great Location. Pathetic room.
There really is not a bad location in Venice, since nearly everything is within walking distance, but this hotel has a great location close to Rialto and San Marco. From the website, it appears that the hotel is well lit and easy to find, but our experience tells of something different. Since we arrived late (11PM), the alley that the hotel was located was completely pitch black and the sign was not easily visible. Then, we had to backtrack around the corner to the hotel's sister hotel to check in. The room was small and smelled musty with a hard double bed and ancient looking furniture, bed linens and amenities. The TV was about 12 inches and did not even work properly. Pros: Superb AC! Decent bathroom. The free breakfast was nothing special. Do not recommend.

Fabulous Bed & Breakfast
The B&B was a bit tricky to find (even some locals weren't really sure) but other hotels nearby helped us find it. The staff was welcoming and helpful (even carried our bags upstairs for us). The room was spacious, clean, with a charming 19th century decor. The breakfast was fabulous and freshly baked. Overall, a great experience for a couple experiencing Venice for the first time.

Not user friendly
Very hard to find and when found there was a sign on the door to go to another door but not specified how to find that either. At long last, being let in, out room was on the 4th floor, no elevator. Very hard work, little attention paid by any staff which was mostly non-existant. Beds were not as requested.

Do not recommend
This hotel was incredibly hard to find. When we arrived, we had to go to the main hotel to check in. After that, we were lead to another one of their hotels that we had not booked. The bathroom was tiny and had flies -- not very clean. The room itself appeared clean, but the mattress and pillows were hard as a rock. Overall, it was not what we saw in the pictures. I would not recommend this hotel to people. For the money, stay somewhere else.

Beautiful Venice
We arrived late in the day and found the hotel with just a bit of trouble. Unlike the other posts, the hotel was clearly marked. We did need to go to the sister hotel, about 50 meters away to pick up the keys. There was no elevator, 74 steps up to our room. As we did not go in and out many times a day, this was not a problem nor an inconvenience. I believe most hotels in this area do not have elevators. The hotel was located right off the Campo Santa Maria Formosa, and was an excellent location to get around. The breakfast was simple but adequate, croissants, rolls, coffee, tea, hot chocolate and a tort or two along with several cereal choices. My only complaint would be that the advertised free wifi was actually located at the sister hotel. So if you need to be connected, you will have to walk the 50m to get the free wifi. We chose to be off the web for the 3 nights, and just enjoyed Venice. All in all, a very old, quaint hotel which I would recommend.
