Anda Venice Hostel

“I approve!”

Had a great stay and experience here. Comfortable beds, fast wifi, cool air conditioning, and clean! I would definitely recommend to others.

Stayed at Anda Venice Hostel, located a couple of streets away from Mestre Train Station, for a long weekend in a shared room. By the train station is the dodgy part of Mestre, however it is no less safe than around Manchester Piccadilly or Nottingham Train Station which means if you're coming back from Venice at night make sure you are vigilant. I would recommend this hostel if you travelling as a group as this is definitely a party hostel full of Gen Z and on the weekends they do club nights as well as other nights throughout the week. During these nights they do have security on the doors checking hostel passes, I wasn't aware of this at the time which led to a standoff between myself and the security guard until I realised he was security. I did find some of the staff there to be quite rude which was disappointing as being a foreigner on a solo trip is a daunting experience and the hostel staff didn't help with that. There is a vibrant atmosphere throughout the hostel with varying nationalities which gives the hostel a nice feel This hostel can't be beaten on value and if you are budget travelling then here is absolutely perfect as long as you're okay with not being in directly in Venice. Mestre itself is a Mediterranean Sheffield and staying in Anda allowed me to discover the mainland moreso than I would've had I stayed in Generator or a hotel in Venice. The hostel is clean and well maintained, it is noisy especially on club nights and you will get drunk and leary people potentially outside your room at 2am but again you're staying at a party hostel you should expect it. You can buy a lock and rent a towel upon check-in. They have a bar that is reasonably priced, furthermore there is a 24 hour vending machine a couple of streets over. Overall, Anda Venice is a decent hostel to stay at and for it's price it won't be beaten on value. This place is perfect for groups that are interrailing or for people on their gap years. This is a party hostel so this is great for meeting new people. If you're solo and not as interested in Mestre itself then I'd only recommend here based on value for money.

“Super clean, super good view, no curtains for privacy.”

Really great price for a last minute stay. Staff were friendly and the accommodation is great with good views. However, there were no curtains so the lack of privacy wasn't good. The bathroom was within the rooms so that was great and everything was super clean.

“Good but minimal privacy in private room”

Place was clean and friendly. Got a private room to myself. Only problem was that I was awoken by a staff member coming into my room at 11:30pm to check on my thermostat without knocking. I get that it’s a hostel but I expected a private room to be a little more private. At least a knock would’ve b… more
