Review of Hilton Molino Stucky Venice

Check in: usual process.

Check in: usual process.
Room: at first we got the nice room with terrible smell. After our request, we got it changed to another one, though smaller and much less beautiful. Finally, we got assigned to Executive suite. It had a separate living area and a kitchenette (useless in our case). The rooms in general were ok, but nothing special. No spectacular interiors there.
Lounge: it's really nice that there is one, however it's one of the more miserable lounges in the industry :) Just a separate area behind the glass wall in the lobby. However it had some snacks, drinks and nice coffee for take away.
Hotel location: on a separate island in Venice. It means that it's slightly harder to get there. It has its own shuttle boat which takes to main islands, however only to a one specific location (two in the evening), which mean that if you want to explore Venice, be prepared for a lot of walking. The hotel is on the edge of the island, with beautiful views to canal.
Breakfast: slightly below expectations. Can be crowded, not the best service, nor the choice of food.
Bar: hotel has nice bar at the roof, with beautiful views. Otherwise, mediocre price/quality ratio. It also has a pool nearby (on the roof); it was closed during winter season.
Overall: 3/5. Experience was ok in general, service was nice. There were few quibbles though, which left only average impression of this hotel.
