Good location, nice breakfast and decent price

My wife and I spend one night in Florence, the hotel was sufficient for an overnight stay. The location is very good, walking distance to the main train station and the major tourist attractions. The cleaniness of the hotel is not the best, there is dust all over the place but it is a good price/benefit option is you are not picky enough. The breakfast was very rich, with plenty of options.

Hotel agradável com pequeno almoço agradável. A localização não é má. Pena o quarto onde fiquei ser ao lado da casa das máquinas uma vez que faziam barulho a noite toda e era desagradável para dormir. Nesse sentido acaba por ser um mau serviço prestado.

Centralt men ikke mere end det

Opholdet var fint nok til prisen og personalet var søde. Dog var vi meget plaget af støjgener, da hele hotellets facade er ved at blive renoveret. Derfor var hele hotellet indhyldet i et stillads, og håndværkere gik lige ude foran vinduet, så vi aldrig kunne have gardinerne rullet fra. Dertil startede de også tidligt om morgenen med at bore, hamre mv. Vi gjorde hotellet opmærksomme på dette, men de kunne ikke gøre noget.

Erstes Ximmer hat furchtbar nach Kloake gerochen, man gab uns jedoch anstandslos ein anderes. Kann man für den Preis wieder machen. Frühstück auf größerem Balkon/ Innenhof .

The room was not like it was pictured in the least. The bedding was itchy and of poor quality. The bidet (has spots of urine and dark brown spots) and shower were not clean, the fridge was not in service (something another customer complained about as well). We got one towel per person, which was not sufficient for our body and hair. I will say the soap was good and smelled nice. The breakfast was varied and satisfactory. Fine for a one night but never someplace I’d return.
