Buena relacion precio/calidad. Prolijo y comodo. Lo unico malo es que el baño del vecino estaba en la pared de la cama de mi habitacion, por lo que te despertaba cuando tiraban la cisterna en la noche.

Nice Florence hotel!
Great location near train station and Florence sites. Easy to walk to many locations and to/from the train station. The room was clean and surprisingly big! That was a really nice surprise as we had to repack our bags and we had plenty of space. Staff was nice and friendly. Breakfast was simple but good. The only complaint was the small shower - I’m petite so I managed but my tall husband had a bit more trouble. Overall I would recommend!

We did not stay in this property. The Expedia ad said we could have a shower or bathtub. I requested bathtub and then sent numerous messages to the Hotel to make sure I was getting my request. I sent them before the deadline for a refund. I received messages, but my question was not answered. Then, on the day of the reservation, they said that the room I chose does not come with a bathtub. I cannot stay in a room without a bathtub - so I cancelled and expect a full refund. Thanks, Frances Restuccia

It’s a bargain three star property. Staff and location are positives. Room size was very tight, but we were not there to stay in the room.

I think you could get a better room for the rates charged. Very basic rooms, staff seems friendly at first but shifts to being unhelpful

This does not look anything like the photos. Beware. We felt completely scammed by expedias description and rating of the place and unfortunately are continuing to experience this in Italy. Do not recommend at all

Location was perfect - easy 8min walk to/from train station and walkable to all sightseeing spots. Breakfast was great; staff was super friendly and helpful. Good wifi, near market and food, always felt safe. Its quite loud at night but the location itself was well worth it. Would stay again.

Staff (both reception and housekeeping) were very friendly and helpful. Hotel’s location was great. The mattresses were awful, however, and it was difficult to get a good night’s sleep. The noise of the plumbing and the other guests was clearly audible. There were a few minor issues with the safe and the shower leaking.

The hotel is very nice, it’s decorated with antiques. Our only complaint was there weren’t proper plugs for us to charge our phones. It wasn’t until our final day that I discovered plugs for our chargers .
