Room was very close to train station, which worked perfectly for a late arrival into the city. Area was quiet. Room was a bit more sparse than anticipated, but it worked for a short stay.

Pros: 1- very conveniently located to the Florence SM Novella station. 2- The checkin was easy 3- the room and toilet were really big and beautiful. Cons: 1- The room just had beds and chair. A table would be nice to have plus a mirror in the room or closet would be great. 2- the room keys were getting stuck while trying to lock the room.

The host was very kind. The location is old, and the elevator is small/very old. The host had to help me with it. Manual keys, there's a trick to using them. Room was comfortable, no luggage rack or place to store things. Beautiful marble in the bathroom. Very clean.

Absolutely beautiful rooms. My partner and I had a nice one and my parents gor a very big one that was just gorgeous. The hotel is located in a convenient part of town so most things can be walked to. We sadly only stayed one night but i would definitely stay again if im ever in Florence. I highly recommend this hotel!

It was a great location, the room could use a chair or two, and something to put your bags on instead of the floor. But overall a great experience, and would definitely recommend, lots of charm.

Great staff. Clean room. Property is old and a bit rundown. I believe they’re trying to renovate the place piece by piece.

The location is very good, close to the metro station and everything is in walking distance. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, our room was available earlier and the last day we could store our luggage. Everything was clean with a good bathroom. The bed was a little hard, but that's personal preference. It was nice there was a fridge in the room to store cool drinks and an air-conditioning was also in the roomb Overall a very nice stay, good location in a beautiful city.

Verified review

6/10 Good

We were surprised to learn the staff is only available until 4pm but they did accomodate us at check-in to make sure someone was there when we checked in. They did provide us with a recommendation to park the car. They could not provide information or recommendation on a place to eat which I would expect and assume a common question to provide. No map or other information about the city was provided as we have gotten at other hotels There is no safe in the room They were able to store the luggage for us which was helpful after we checked out It was a good location but lack of customer service.

Incrível!!! Já ficamos ficamos impactados quando entramos no quarto. A cama era muito confortável, o ar-condicionado funcionou perfeitamente e fomos muito bem recebidos também. Se voltarmos à Firenze, ficaremos lá novamente. Também é muito perto da estação de trem e conseguimos fazer tudo a pé.
