Drop dead view of Venice”
This is the most gorgeous hostel in the best location. On Guidecca Island. Better than staying anywhere else in Venice. The view from the hostel looking towards San Marco is 10 out of 10! Visit Venice if the weather is good, not overcast. You will need to buy an ACTV vaporetto and spend 20, 30 or 40 euros for water taxi pass for one, three or seven days. One day is enough for Venice, two is for it being worthwhile to travel to Venice and stay on the separated island, and three to get the most of what you will need to spend on ACTV vaporetto pass. Pass can be used to almost all ports for rides. Stay here if you can handle taking a boat to everywhere. Cons: If you get seasick, don't go to Venice Julie from Hawaii

highly recommended 😍”
The best hostel I have ever stayed in. The reception man who has a long hair is cooperative and cheerful. I will definitely come back to visit Venice and stay again at this wonderful hostel.

Higyly Recommended!”
Good location! It's not on the main island, so it's quiet at night. It's nearby water bus stations and supermarkets. Unfortunately, there's only one shower room with toilet while there are many beds in the dorm.

Great Location with cheap price!”
Good location just located in the central of Venice main island. Overall environment is clean, staff are very friendly and helpful! Equipped with washing machine, coffee, bar and young people! Shared in 16 beds of the room makes it little bit messy and noisy.

Good place ”
I would rate this place even 10/10 but there was one mug minus. There is no access to kitchen. As a backpackers usually travel in budget access to kitchen is necessary not only for cooking but to have at least fridge. There is no microwave, no fridge or even corner to make a sandwich. Expect that everything was great :) super clean, helpful staff and safe location. It takes 10 minutes to get to the “main island” by boat train

Excellent”
The room and the bathroom was clean and nice; there are also extra bathrooms outside the room. Bed and pillow confortable. The common area is lovely, with sofas, armchairs; You can easily spend the evening there, drinking some beer and chatting or reading. Just one negative note. Since the hostel is located in an area where there are not so many bars and restorants (and have no kitchen) the hostel's bar should have more options.

Overall okay stay”
This is the first Generator I’ve been to. It’s a good location. Right across the water from Piazza San Marco. This does mean however you need to take the vaporetto (waterbus) to get to main Venice. The station is a 1 min walk from the hostel. No other way around it. The lobby and resting area is gorgeous and clean. Staff approachable and friendly. I only had breakfast there but it was well made. The dorms are nicely designed. The bed is comfy enough but the sheets (or maybe the bed itself) smelled a little like old wet laundry. The bathroom in front of my dorm ran out of soap the first afternoon as well as the main lobby but they fixed it when I brought it up. The toilet paper on my floor ran out in one of the stalls the night before and still wasn’t filled the next late morning. But the actual washroom itself felt clean despite the slow restocking. Overall it is good value for your money. Luggage lockers are big enough for 60L backpacks with a bit of room left too.

Below average ”
This generator is a shame to the usually good name they had no internet for 3 days and didn’t seem to care when you asked about the wifi the breakfast was very small and the staff was unfriendly and let you wait at the counter for 5+minutes

In the mean time please accept our apologies. Best regards Sara Generator Venice Team
Cool place! ”
Love to stay on this quite island of Giudecca which has the amazing view of the main island. Staff are helpful and nice, and enjoy chatting with other visitors in the cool common area. Remember to get off at “Zitelle” station instead of any other station at “Giudecca”, cos the staff just told me Giudecca when I messaged and ask them for direction. We stayed in the en-suite, so we don’t have any problem regarding the bathroom, charging, privacy, etc. But if you are staying in the dorm, remember to bring everything you need including towel! they only allow rental, won’t provide it.

Great Party Hostel!”
Amazing location just a short hop across to all the Venice action. Incredibly clean and very well designed hostel. I was a solo traveler in Europe and had the most fun at this hostel due to the people met and the many cheap euro wines consumed. Would highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a budget friendly clean place to stay in Venice. Please note this hostel does not have a kitchen for you to cook your own meals however meals available for purchase are fairly cheap

Good trendy hostel with elevator”
Very good. Room is clean and I am happy it is close to waterbus stop and has an elevator. So basically when you arrive at S. Lucia, just go to water bus stop in front of station and take a 40-min ride and you will arrive at Zitelle and the hostel is just one minute walk away from the stop. So easy. No need to carry luggages around searching for your hotel around Venice like most people do. I am glad I stayed here.

Very good”
A very decent hostel in Venice. Although the location is not on the main Venice island but it is very easy to reach using vaporetto, only 2 stations away if you get on Line 2 at St Mark Square. Very clean and comfortable. There are only 2 shower rooms and 2 toilets for female on my floor. You have to wait for a while for your turn but definitely still manageable. Staffs are friendly. Highly recommended considering that Venice is an expensive tourist area.

Beautiful location, great atmosphere, yummy food”
The views are great all around Venice, but having your hostel open up to amazing waterfront views was something I didn't think was possible. I met some cool people while there and hung out downstairs one night for food and drinks. Location is right near one of the boats to transport you to the different islands. Would stay again!

Very well equipped and furnished hostel”
The hostel was a nice place to stay, with big drawers for own personal belongings and very well furnished hostel lobby. It has a personal light for each bunk and in general, it is very professionally furnished. The location was very good as well, as the water taxi from the hostel was only 2 stops away to the main island/church. There is little walking required from the main train station to this hostel, as most of the travelling is done by water taxi , so a water taxi(vaporetto) pass is highly suggested. However, there are certain downsides to this hostel. The biggest issue for me was that the doors to the female or male toilets had NO lock and the shower cubicles also had no lock while the shower cubicle doors were transparent throughout except the 'main areas' being blocked. As a guy I was fine with it, however I heard concerns from a female friend as she was surprised the doors were not locked and technically anyone could enter the toilets freely, especially when the shower cubicle doors were exposed, with no locks. Moreover, there was very insufficient space to hang your own towels and clothings while bathing. However, if those are not much of an issue (which shouldn't be to most people who seek for a hostel experience), it is a hostel worth staying at as it is very comfortable.

I enjoyed my stay and would come back.”
Nice place and cheaper than a lot of other budget hotels but you must take into consideration the cost of vaporetto to get in and out of Giudecca island where the hostel is situated.

Great stay but too few bathrooms”
I really enjoyed my stay, everything was clean and well taken care of. I appreciated that it was convenient to take the vaporetto to Venice proper but off the beaten path enough it wasnt crowded. My only complaint was that there was only one bathroom for 8 beds + 1 general one in the hallway. Made timing showers and teeth brushing difficult and take longer than necessary. Otherwise it was a great stay and Id recommend it.
