We were put in 2 "upgraded" deluxe rooms. I'd hate to see a regular deluxe room. The rooms were…read moredisgusting - stained furniture , dirty carpet. Window was blocked by a huge bush -- no light - Asked for another room - what they offered was just as bad. The private water taxi (100 Euros) was not worth the money to pull into the hotel - its not special at all. But if you don't do that and take the train, you'll have to take the vaporetto hauling your luggage to San Marco to catch the free shuttle to the hotel. No one would stay there if there wasn't a free shuttle. All the 5 star reviews are fake. Staff was snickering at us, food was bland and overpriced. New hires didn't even know how to make the simplest drinks or even pour a draft beer. The architecture does not reflect the naturalistic and architectural heritage as they describe. The building and common areas are old, cold and dirty. If the rooms are dirty - the spa is dirty and unsanitary. We were planning on spending a lot of money at the spa but passed. We already spent the money to get there and stay at this 2 star hotel - I felt in all good conscience NOT to spend any money at JW. We had a lovely day at a spa off San Marco Square. Don't eat at JW - unbelievable restaurants with tremendous food in Venice - especially the walking food tour with Marianna - Stay at a true 5-star hotel - NOT the JW MArriott
