Super beautiful for Italian Renaissance fetishists especially. The only thing missing for me as I walked the opulent gallerias under the spectacular frescoes was seeing some syphilitic old aristocrats and overworked, under-commissioned tortured artists of the time (rather than plump thighs in bermuda shorts). The clientele in the Venezia is quite diverse culturally though, but probably not economically. \n\nThe venezia is wonderfully located - you walk into the front of the hotel, get into the elevator and you're home. I may have had it better since the terrazzo suite is on the first floor. The private patio rocked -- it is right next to the pool deck, but there was a large fountain right next to mine, so the sounds of the shrieking kids are muted. Coffee in the morning and hanging out in the early or late evening are good, and I kept the door open almost all the time so I could hear either the fountain or the crickets (city slicker).\n\nI went to the pool once and there were literally 22 children and four adults. The pool deck is not single adult friendly and the pool is very small, so even with several kids in it it feels like a crowd.\n\nOtherwise all is gorgeous with this place, and I hope to be renting the same suite for years to come if management hasn't nixed me for ranting so much about the wireless issue.\n\nThe only major con is that their representation of wireless internet being available in the suite is wrong, wrong, wrong. They did list this as an amenity on the terrazzo suite which since has been altered on their site, and there is a wireless network called \"SuiteWiFi\" which asks you to authenticate in order to be charged. But at the front desk they say that wireless is only available in the food court and by the pool. The staff are NOT informed about the WiFi. I was able to get to a special authentication screen for the suite WiFi just enough to set myself up to be charged, but I was otherwise unable to make any good consistent use of the network, from anywhere. They should ditch any mention of WiFi as an amenity on their site, seriously, until they work it out.\n\nThe only other small issue is that they should set the air systems in the rooms to low. It's just as effective and far less noisy. The constant buzzing drone from the other rooms was annoying, and they'd save huge amounts on power if they did this.
