I stayed at a wonderful place in summer. I tried to describe it in Beergal's post, but wasn't very specific...sorry! Anyway, did a bit more research and it is called "Hotel Antico Capon" in Campo Santa Margherita. The reception is in a big yellow building, and from there you'll be sent to various apartments. It was a little expensive for what we got (35 euros for a single bed in a 4 bed room, tiny bathroom down the hall that was always full), but included coffee and a pastry at this little cafe in the square. You can find details for it at travelpunkand I think it might have a link of its own. Hope that helps!

Ostello Venicia on Giudecca. Twenty euro I believe.

i stayed at Ostello Venicia and i didn't like it much. rooms were single sex, and 16 per drom, no doors on showers.
breakfast was ok though and lockout at around 23:00.

Antico Capon is not too shabby! For the extra ten or so Euros difference you would have saved by staying on the Island will made up by Vaporetto tickets!

I was abducted by aliens and taken to their planet...

I was persuing my life long dream of becoming the world's most famous porn star.

True, that places was awful.
But did you meet Rafael?
He was deeply offened when I bought a pizza at the place next door.
He told me, "no, you cannot eat that pizza here"
Then he gave me a free dinner just so I would not eat that pizza there.
Apperently he does not like the guy who owns the pizza place.
