As is typical of Venetian hotels, many of the rooms and bathrooms are quite small, and with all those baroque furnishings, some guests find them a bit cramped and overly dark. You might find the bathrooms in particular a real squeeze.
Guests point out that there's no lift at this hotel, and given the historic nature of the building, the stairs are quite narrow and difficult to navigate if you have lots of luggage. It's worth being aware of if you're staying on the third floor in particular, as it can be quite a hike up.
The WiFi isn't great at this hotel, with guests saying that the connection is often slow or doesn't work at all. This can be a pain if you're trying to plan the next things to do and see during your excursions around Venice, though you might get a better signal in the main reception area.
