Venice: Aman
Now to our room. The design is clear and stands in contrast to some of the public rooms.
If the fresco is the only real difference to the "cheaper" Rooms I would never pay 550 € for it. The room itself was OK, but nothing I would describe as ultra luxury. Personally I would have preferred a sofa.
As usual minibar was free:
Is this perhaps the reason bhrubin isn´t impressed by the Aman?
The view from the bedroom:
Now to the down of our room. It was loud. First the old doors were not really well soundproofed. So when someone walked over the floor you could hear everything. For sure they can also hear everything from your room. Personally I´m not a fan of the idea people hear everything from my room.
The second problem was that there were constantly noises from the upper Floor (which is used by the owner if I´m right). It sounded like thousand steps, really not supported my sleep.
The bathroom had the size of the bedroom and was nice with a lot of natural light.
Unfortunately the bathroom wasn´t without fault. I guess many people like natural light in the bathroom and the toilet. Generally I agree but I´m not a big fan of beeing seenable while seating on the toilet. To avoid this you had to take this second curtain down. Here you get an idea of the problem:
It was simply not comfortable, you always came "in conflict" with the curtain….
Also I was shocked to see how they did the silicone joints. Well, I´m really not a talentated handyman but I´m not sure I would do it like this. If this would delivered by a professional to me I wouldn´t pay one cent till it´s done properly.
Also this fitting is not really state of the art.
Well, I could perhaps laugh about it at an Ibis but at a 1925 € room (not at high season!!!) it´s not that funny.
