Hostel in Florence

Most charming hostel in Florence. Staff was very pleasant and accommodating. The room was a nice size and clean. The bathroom was not very large , very tough to turn around in the shower. No tub. Be ready for differences like: the towels, they have bath sheets to dry off that are really wonderful. The wash cloths and hand towels are like linen napkins but larger. Not very good to lather up with, but doable. Don't know about the TV we never turned it on. Make sure you bring adaptors for outlets if you have any electronics you want to use. Never heard any outside noises or other visitors. Breakfast was different also. Good and filling but not like continental breakfasts in America. Had a real hard time adjusting to no fruit.

Laut

Wir haben wegen dem Strassenlärm leider sehr schlecht geschlafen. Fenster auf oder zu machte keinen Unterschied. Renovierungsbedürftig und ungemütlich.

vue sur fontaine

La chambre que nous avons eu donnée sur une petite cour agrémentée d'une fontaine et de petites tables avec chaises, un plus qui nous a rendu le séjour fort agréable ayant avec moi une fumeuse invétérée. Petit déjeuné complet et varié; personnel trés serviable.

不近市中心,也不在遊客區,由火車站去也要20多分鐘,落車也難找。 另外,幢樓得舊,地板會震的。 看酒店的伯伯得慈祥,不過我給這個房價的話,市中心都會有好多選擇。
