“Nice place to stay for a short time”
+The reception & bar staff was overall friendly and helpful. The bar/sitting area is cozy and it has boardgames and other entertainment options. The bar is open until late and you can walk in and out of the hostel at all times. Locals are there during the day sometimes too. I had no problems with the dorms & bathrooms. The island of Giudecca is quite well connected to other areas of Venice and I liked the quiet area. (Though annoying to buy vaporetto passes.) It has some eating places & a supermarket on walking distance. There was a refill point for your waterbottles. As one other guest mentioned: the bench before the hostel has the best view of the island. :-)
−My bed was not made when I checked in. This got resolved very quickly though. It was uncomfortably hot the first few days. Food for dinner was almost never available, while bringing own food was not allowed. No facilities to store or cook your own food either. Some security & cleaning staff made me feel uneasy and/or unwelcome by their behaviour or comments. One of the toilets was "temporarily out of order" almost the full 12 days when I was there. For a shorter stay this wouldn't have bothered me much.

“Overpriced and not worth it”
+I liked that it was on a less densely populated island with a nice view of Venice. There was also a local community feel that was great to be around as well as plenty of restaurants nearby to choose from.
−For what you get it is overpriced. The egg breakfast for 12 euros (pictured) was underwhelming and they charge for everything (even luggage storage). The rooms are quite cramped and there isn't much space between the bunks. You have to dress your own bed upon arrival and despite requesting a lower bunk (and lower bunks being available when I checked in) I was given an upper bunk. There are also windows between the rooms which let in a lot of light (pictured) and sound so if someone in the next room over is having a conversation, you can make out everything that they're saying. Even if the courtesy light on an individual bunk is on, you can see it very well in the next room. While the location was a highlight, one of my bunkmates insisted on leaving the window open for my entire stay and without a screen, I was getting bit by mosquitoes and eventually my allergy medication stopped working since I was constantly exposed. All this to say, I did not sleep well a single night I stayed there and should have spent slightly more money to stay elsewhere.

+Great location, the quiet island is a nice break from the noise and crowds of the center, yet still authentic Venice. Can't beat the view when you step out of the hostel in the morning ! I was in a mixed dorm, but the bathroom still separated men/women's, which was nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The lockers are big enough for large backpacks.
−I was in a dorm of 16 beds, so of course there was a lot of snoring, slamming of doors, lights, etc, no one was getting much sleep, but that's how it is with large dorms, can't be helped.

“Gutes Hostel”
+Dieses Hostel war für meine Zwecke perfekt: die Lage ist prima, das Bett stand am Fenster, welches zu öffnen ging, der Transfer zu Flughafen ging einfach. Die Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und gut gelaunt. Besonders das Frühstück (Omelett, zwar nicht billig, aber echt gut, ich habe gleich noch eins bestellt) in Verbindung mit Matias "Quasi-Unterhaltungsprogramm" war ein super Start in den Tag. Es ist sehr einfach, im großzügigen Gemeinschaftsbereich mit Menschen in Kontakt zu kommen, oder sich zurückzuziehen: gerade wie es passt.
−Ich fand es knapp bemessen, dass das große Schlafzimmer für so viele Personen mit nur einem Bad mit nur einer Toilette/ einem Waschbecken/ einer Dusche ausgestattet war: ich hatte Glück mit den Personen auf meinem Zimmer, dass es zeitlich gut gepasst hat. 5€ für ein Handtuch fand ich viel.

“素晴らしいヴェネツィアの旅をありがとうございました。”
+運が良く日本語を話せる方が受付の対応してくださり、思いがけず旅先で日本語で会話できたことがとても嬉しかったです。ベッドやシャワーも清潔でした。水上バスの乗り場も近く、レストランもあり便利でした。またヴェネツィアを訪れる際には、ぜひ利用したいです。

“Agradable y que cumplieron mis expectativas.”
+Me encantó la ubicación,la decoración de zonas comunes muy bien.La atención del personal es exelente.
−No hay suficiente iluminación en las camas y en la noche mientras todos duermen no se puede encender la luz general y para prepararse en caso que uno deba dejar el hotel en horario de la madrugada pues apenas se ve nada.
