**Edit: This problem is now fixed. The building has heating. WARNING! Do not book during the winter or spring. This place does not have heating. At night the temperature drops to 40-50 degrees, which is extremely uncomfortable to sleep in, especially since they don’t provide adequate blankets for this type of weather. I’m sleeping in my winter jacket at night to stay warm and my head still gets very cold - and I’m from Minnesota! Not sure how this is legal. When I asked the staff they claim they have no heater. When I pressed the booking company, they put up a tiny 12 inch space heater pointed at my bed - that barely does anything in a giant open space building. You won’t be able to sleep, your experience will be very uncomfortable and you will probably get sick. Not worth any price to charge - it feels like you’re just sleeping on a stiff mattress outside.
I have contracted bed bugs from here. edit: this is actually really bad. I have to wash everything in my house now and this is extremely stressful. I won't go for a refund because I guess I get what I pay for but I've learned a valuable lesson here not to go for a cheap hostel. Thanks for the service anyways edit 2: I am still deploying widespread defensive and offensive measures within my home to contain the spread of the bed bugs :(
Be weary. During my stay, other guests had no care in mind of the “quiet time” post 10pm. Do not accept a bed by the back entrance, people will be coming in and out throughout the night. It is also where the kitchenette happens to be so between guests accessing their items and a small common area, you will not sleep soundly. I’m also covered in bed bug bites but since I didn’t think of trying to obtain a photo of them for evidence, I don’t think I’ll be getting my money back. Not sure if this is a problem throughout all of Venice, but the sewage smell is pretty pungent. I appreciate this place for what it is, but would like to see some more tidiness here. Not asking for the stars and moon
I sent message this company and felt bad. Do you have something contact to you? I plan to go to LA this Friday, if I can stay one night I change this review. I book and paid LA location but this time the parking is not available due to road cleaning. I showed up and request cancel but they did not do that. I ask Agoda but they can not help I ask pod share they also did not refund or voucher to next visit.
In theory, this is a great place right a coworker spot where you can rent a little pod get your work done and live in Venice for less than $2000 a month right well first you have to get past the gatekeeper a short little bridge troll who decided to who decided to ask me to leave when I was asking questions about the ownership and the day rate for staying there which is $15 pretty convinced this is a cover for either CIA recruiting or just a bunch of really rude trustafarians. From what I could tell is mostly homeless people staying there anyway packing their bunks with all of their belongings, not my cup of tea.
