Darling little Velia runs the homey Hotel Alex with care and attention. Located just off the Campo Frari and near the bustling erbaria markets, this spot is calm and quiet.
The front parlor entrance and big, airy bedrooms are done up in dark woods and original Venetian flooring. Pastel bedcovers and curtains coordinate with the delicate Venetian-styled furniture and plain, fresh walls.
Fairly large bathrooms have pink- and cream-colored tiles—they're definitely old, but they're scrubbed to perfection.
Double rooms without a private bath, rounding out at €80 max, are a great steal (especially since you still have a sink and a bidet). Rooms with a private bath run for just a bit more.
Note: This hotel was visited by a EuroCheapo editor and is recommended based on cleanliness, location, price and overall quality. EuroCheapo did not charge this hotel to be listed.

About the Alex neighborhood
North of the Rialto Bridge, Venetian life is a bit more relaxed. Streets are not quite as packed, restaurants have a bit more local flavor, and prices tend to be more affordable in general. By day you’ll find the open-air markets and fish markets referred to as the herbaria, decked out in frescoed porticos. By night the area is home to hipsters for late-night cicchetti and great wines by the glass. You can easily walk to from the area around the Rialto Bridge to San Marco in ten minutes.
