Alloggi Gerotto Calderan

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

The bare-bones Alloggi Gerotto Calderan is situated on the busy Campo San Geremia, within easy walking distance of the train station. The guesthouse offers bargain-rate rooms with basic décor.

The entryway and hallways struck us as a bit tattered, although the Calderan’s 30 simple rooms were in much better shape, with air conditioning and simple white walls. Shiny porcelain floors and a few Venetian touches add a little class where you'd least expect it. In addition to singles, doubles, triples and quads, the Calderan offers six-bed dorms with very few frills. Bathrooms are straightforward affairs with showers.

The few scattered balconies are original to the building and offer great views, although any of the 17 rooms facing the Campo will have views—and be a bit noisy at night. Quieter rooms face a garden or courtyard.

The same management runs the Hotel San Geremia next door, although we found the Calderan’s rooms to be in better shape. The San Geremia serves as the Calderan’s reception during selected hours.

Note: The Calderan doesn’t have an elevator, and some rooms are located on the fourth floor.
