Looking for reccomendation for hotel in Capri under 1k a night. I’m seeing on Citi travel hotels in the 20-30k point range but not sure if any of them are decent.

No Minyan in Como (don't think there ever was)
Eiruv in Canazei ? Can't immagine, but you can always phone and ask

No Eiruv in Italy.  Who told you there's a Eiruv in Venice ?

Venice is a series of small, attached islands.  That's a de facto eruv.

First of all the entire island has a recognized eruv due to the canal walls!  As a card carrying Chabadnik I’ve never used a public eruv in my life on Shabbos, but we were able to carry things with us for the first time in Venice on that Shabbos!

But the question still remains…

Kindly give source please

It's an old story, nothing new but even if you use it there's a major caveat when high water all boundaries disappear, as streets and canals become one expanse of water.

Anyone stayed at the Furore Grand Hotel?
I want to be there as a base to explore Capri, Amalfi coast, Positano
From the reviews on TA it looks like it's far from everything, the provided shuttle doesn’t run consistently and to get to anywhere it's a min $70 cab
