Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Easy check in. Nice staff. Accommodations were clean and orderly. It was one of the few rooms available for a last minute booking so the price was more than we would expect to pay. But it slept 3 people with a kitchen and fridge.

This is quite possibly the best place to stay in all of Florence! Once we checked in I was blown away at how cozy and wonderful everything was, it was like a little cottage in the middle of the city, an easy 5-10 min walk to EVERYTHING, if and when I ever return to Florence I WILL be staying at this place again, I HIGHLY recommend!
A quiet, clean and comfortable spot right in the heart of the historic center of Florence. It’s fantastic to have a kitchen and some space to spread out in and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I’ll be back!
This was a real Hidden black gem that I would love to go back and visit again

Great location, older property
Great location near the train station. Older property, stayed in an apartment. Difficult to find appropriate power points for international adaptor they are mainly 3 prong, found one 2 prong adaptor in the kitchenette. Very helpful customer service, we wanted to leave our luggage early to go on a day trip to Pisa and they were able to accommodate even though it was 630am.

First time at Florence
It is little difficult to find the hotel because it’s inside of a big door that was closed during business hours. Have to use an antique key yo enter the room. The hotel bathroom shower is very small that not easy to move around when we shower. Noise from upstairs until midnight and early starting at 6. When we complained the hotels staffs said they don’t owe the upstairs properly so they can’t do much about it. I would rate this hotel 2.5.
Hotel staffs are very friendly and hotel location is good easy to access to the train terminal
Great experience, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was great, we were close to everything we wanted to do. We would stay again, thank you.
