Traditional, independent hotel. Staff are incredibly friendly and made our visit very enjoyable. Recommendations for restaurants and gelato were spot on! The room itself was spacious and comfortable for 4 but it was a little rough around the edges in places. The hotel is a short 5 minute walk to the train station and between 10-20 to all the other main attractions Florence has to offer. Would recommend as a good value hotel.

The staff were really friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and really comfortable beds and good AC. Breakfast was great as it was also part of a cafe so decent coffee. Just a few minutes from the station and nearby to the main attractions, it was really good value for a base to explore the city. They also let customers store the luggage after the stay for free which was brilliant. Would definitely return here

The hotel property, staff and cleanliness were great. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They had a nice continental breakfast and prepared your coffee to order. What we didn’t like was there was not a restaurant on site for dinner…some nights you just want to stay in with a drink and dinner but there cafe was closed after lunch, despite website claiming they had restaurant/bar on site for dinner.

Amazing experience! Albie and Cosmin were exceptional. Perfect location, walkable and accessible, train station is less than 5 minutes and an easy walk with luggage. Lift inside the hotel, great WiFi and air conditioning. The hotel is simple, bathroom was fairly large. Overall we will definitely return, but especially because we enjoyed Albie and Cosmin!

Bugs in the room, and it was quite dirty and very tiny for the price. The furniture and bathroom were too old and needs an upgrade especially for being this expensive. I do not recommend unless you’re okay with paying for an old place.

As is the case with most travel experiences for us, we always try to look for places that have outstanding people. We had not experienced this property but because of its convenient location to downtown Florence as well as proximity to the airport with only a 15-minute ride in the wee hours of the morning, we decided to give it a chance. It did not disappoint. From the moment we arrived and meant Ronny followed up with Albie at the front desk we knew we made a great choice. We decided to have a quick cappuccino at the attached Bar next door and ended up eating a bite of lunch there. The service from Cosmin and especially Ermira was simply amazing. While the room itself was a very typical European Hotel room that was small but adequate it was clean and appointed with Basics you need. In any event we will always vote for experience and cleanliness and this hotel was a great choice for us. We would also be remiss in our responsibility as a review writer to not mention Blaze who was there in the wee hours of the morning and knew that we would miss breakfast because of our early departure so he was kind enough to make us cappuccinos. Thank you Blaze
