Asiallinen henkilökunta joka kertoi mukavista paikoista niin ruokailun kuin ostosten suhteen. Kylpyhuone kÀytÀvÀllÀ ei haitannut lainkaan. Huoneessa kuuma vaikka olikin ÀÀnekÀs tuuletin.

Top locatie, verouderde locatie maar alles wat je nodig hebt voor een weekendje Florence

This was the most shocking hotel experience we have ever had! After a long walk up several flights of rundown stairs, we were made to wait outside the hotel enterance until the owner turned up half an hour later. Once inside the check in process took a further 15 minutes where we were told we needed to make a cash payment for the room which we had already paid for by card. After putting up a fight we managed to get out of paying for our room twice. The owner then tried to take us to a different location but we told him we didn't want to go anywhere else as it seemed a bit odd so he gave us another room up more stairs with a not working shower full of tools. As we opened our bedroom door we were greeted with an overpowering smell of feet. On a whole the place was very dirty and run down and should not be allowed to operate as a hotel. We ended up leaving immediately and checking in elsewhere.

Unfortunately when we stayed at this hotel their computer system was down so it took an hour to check into the hotel and for them to find our booking, if you are staying there in the near future bring cash because they don't have a working efpos machine. When we finally got into our room, we found 4 squashed mosquitos on the wall, we should have taken this as a sign on things to come because soon we had mosquitos buzzing around us, not the best way to be woken up in the middle of the night. Also be aware that the shower in the bathroom is the entire bathroom with out a shower curtain, so the whole bathroom becomes all wet whenever you shower. The location is the only reason I would stay here that and the bed was comfortable so at least you were comfortable while being eaten alive.

DÄrlig vedligehold af vÊrelset, der var ikke strÞm i alle stikkontakter, ledninger hang ud af vÊgge og lofter. Der var ingen p pladser som ellers var annonceret, og pÄ badevÊrelset sad hÄndvasken ikke fast.

Nos dois primeiros dias realmente não gostei.O hotel estava repleto e acabei ficando em um quarto muito pequeno e sem conforto, faia muito calor e não tinha nem um ventil a dor. No terceiro dia o proprietårio me passou para um outro apartamento que só não tinha ar condicionado, muito bom. Fiquei surpresa que até fiz uma brincadeira com Andrea dizendo-lhe que ainda faltava uma coisa, um acompanhante. Rimos...

Camere eccessivamente scarse nella mia televisione non funzionante

Si spacciano come Hotel e poi Ăš un affittacamere! Camera orrenda! Bagno con doccia senza un separe, facendo la doccia bagnavi tutto... Senza asciugamani, carta igienica l'abbiamo dovuta comprare il secondo giorno! La camera Ăš stata pulita solo il primo giorno poi niente...l'unica cosa buona era la zona...

albergo, se tale lo si puo' definire, da dimenticare e da cancellare dalla lista degli alberghi.sarebbe piu' appropriato definirlo affittacamere.mobili che cadevano a pezzi.igiene che lasciava a desiderare.solo la zona in cui si trova e' buona data la vicinanza al centro

2/10

Posto buono rispetto al centro storico e accoglienza buona. Camera piccola con arredamento vecchio, bagno con doccia senza box o tenda e di conseguenza acqua ovunque. Puzza di chiuso misto sigaretta (abbiamo acquistato un deodorante per ambienti), televisore non funzionante.

Great location but this is real budget accommodation . Tiny room with 'stuff' in it? In need of a fix up. The staff are lovely but this place is tired.

4/10

Hotel au 3eme étage sans ascenseur. Des hÎtels différents à chaque étage. Pas de wc ni salle de bain dans la chambre, il a fallu payer cash 20 euro pour en avoir une. Pas de personnel sauf en insistant à l'arrivée. Pas de ménage ni de lit faits ni savon entre les 2 nuits. Avantage: prÚs du centre et d'un garage payant.

Nous sommes un couple de trentenaire. Etant donnĂ© le prix trĂšs bas de la chambre au vu des tarifs pratiquĂ©s en pĂ©riode de we de l'Ascension on Ă©tait content d'avoir trouvĂ© qqch et on s’attendait pas au grand luxe. Cependant plusieurs dysfonctionnements grossiers on rendu notre sĂ©jour de 3 nuits carrĂ©ment grotesque et surrĂ©aliste. ArrivĂ© Ă  20h, le personnel d’accueil Ă©tait absent avec un code Ă  la porte que nous ignorions. Nous avons Ă©tait aidĂ© par d'autres locataire qui passaient par lĂ .Une Douche se trouvait dans la chambre mais avec seulement de l'eau froide et qui n'avait pas Ă©tĂ© dĂ©tartrĂ©e depuis la chute de Constantinople... L'ergonomie de la chambre est aussi trĂšs dĂ©concertante avec des dĂ©coration qui empĂȘchent littĂ©ralement de circuler dans la chambre. Niveau propretĂ© la chambre Ă©tait correcte. Les parties communes (douche, toilettes) Ă©taient nettement moins satisfaisante, avec quelques surprises comme la chasse d'eau qui ne marche pas, la tuyauterie qui fuie, des moisissures ici et lĂ ... Bref cet hĂŽtel nous a permis d'aller Ă  Florence malgrĂ© tout mais nous appris a ne jamais rĂ©server Ă  la derniĂšre minute.

We were late in booking our hotel in Florence. We booked with only about 10 days before departure and as a result, all of the better economic options were full. We chose this hotel because it was literally the only hotel left that fit our budget and was located inside the city center triangle. For the price we paid for a two night stay, it was not worth the stay. I would not stay there again. The hotel is up four or five flights of stairs. There is a small lift but we did not use it - didn't look too trustworthy. After walking into the hotel we had to go up another narrow flight of stairs to reach our room. The hotel has a very old feeling to it. Nothing has been updated in decades. The feeling we had when we walked into our room was a sinking feeling of knowing that we were going to spend our next two nights here and it was not going to be pleasant. Our room had a sink and a bidet. We shared a bathroom with the other seven or eight other rooms on our floor for showers and going #2. The door lock system did not give us confidence that our room would be secure. Our room had a huge old wardrobe but only one of the three doors opened and the door that did open felt like it needed some mothballs. I realize that this is common in a lot of hotels and pensiones in Europe, but this hotel was not worth the price we paid. Maybe if the hotel had charged 20% to 30% less per night we would have been satisfied.

la camera era piccolissima con un bagno scomodissimo e con un odore nauseabondo.

4/10

No habian toallas ni papel higenico cuando llegue, el internet se iba a cada rato, no se encontraba alguien detras del escritorio para resolver dudas, alejado del centro.

2/10

A very disappointing experience altogether. Booked a superior room but it was nothing more than very basic. No toilet, a shower that only dribbled water. The shared toilet would not flush properly and was filthy. Don't book this hotel!!!

2/10

Puzzava di muffa, molto tetro e umido. Scordatevi le camere delle foto. Non fanno le pulizie in camera ogni giorno e tanto meno cambiano gli asciugamani. Se sapete adattarvi per2 notti puĂČ andare bene. Il proprietario voleva imbroglarci dicendoci che gli dovevamo ancora 50€ a fine soggiorno(avevamo saldato tutto all'arrivo) L'unica cosa positiva Ăš che ci ha lasciato le chiavi del palazzo, rendendoci completamente indipendenti, e il giorno del check out abbiamo potuto usufruire della camera fino a sera. Se riuscite a trovare altro allo stesso prezzo sarĂ  sicuramente meglio.
