I've been to Hotel Erwin in June 2017 to stay for about two nights at the beginning of my Westcoast Tour.

I booked a (relatively expensive) Kingsize Ocean View Room. I had ocean views, but only sidewise, so this was not what I expected at this prize to be honest. The room itself was tidy, clean and had a modern style. However, my room was directly below the Roof Top Bar and directly next to emergency steps from it. This led people coming down the stairs and doing phone calls right 2-3 meters next to my bed! Sleeping with windows opened was impossible, not mentioning some drunk people climbing over my balcony fence! The roof top itself provides beautiful views above Venice, consider it's getting very cold at the evening!



If you like to keep it low budget, you may visit a mall beforehand and get yourself some stuff to enjoy at sunrise on your balcony.

Back to the Hotel: The bathroom was a modern style with much space. The hotel even provides two different fancy bathrobes, just checkout people's pictures on Instagram. My room had an (unnecessary) huge TV with all common US-programs. I received a key for the minibar, but it didn't work, but I didn't bother for it anyway. The hotel has only one elevator. That being said, you should consider waiting or taking the steps in "rush hours".

Check in/check out is easy, so nothing to say about that.

Last thing to mention is that you really should consider taking Uber or ordering a cab by yourself to get anywhere. The receptionist ordered a cab for me and said it's going to be about USD 50. I paid USD 75 for a taxi which didn't even look like one.
