Check-in and communication were great. The accommodations were spacious but the beds were very uncomfortable. We had some difficulties with windows not closing properly and mosquitoes in the room at night that bothered our children. No food was allowed in the room which limits your use of the space - provision of better coffee and more than one serving for multiple nights of stay would be appreciated. The shower leaked.
2 minutes after getting into the room all the power went out in the building, then we had no water or power - I was able to reach the desk (even though it was just after 6) and they said they would get back to me after talking to the owner. No one contacted me again that night. after multiple calls to the number and texts to the what’s app number there was no response and we had no water. We had to spend our dinner calling other hotels and we ended up paying over double to move to a new hotel at midnight. In the morning we went to the desk and asked for a refund, they said Expedia had to refund us, so we contacted Expedia but now the owner is saying that we can’t have a refund even though we did not stay even one night. We think the owner should be responsible to refund us and cover the difference in cost we had to pay for a last minute hotel in peak season or they should be removed from expedia so that customers can trust they won’t be scammed.
Let's start with positives. The property is in a great location for accessing everything from transportation to food to shopping to major attractions.
Now the rest. There was supposed to be an elevator but we couldn't find it. Every door we opened contained a little stairway to nowhere. So we had to drag our luggage up 80 stairs. No food allowed in the room - at all. This is news! A strange rule. The sewer smell was overpowering so they came and poured bleach down the drain which lasted through our stay. However the A/C noise was unbelievably loud, like a pair of dog grooming clippers through an amplifier. We let them know but nothing changed.
The room didn't look like the photos. The bathroom was cramped with no place to set things down and one corner of the shower has mold and yuck. The staff were very nice and we give them the benefit of the doubt for the other things. I'm sure they don't make policy!
Would not stay here again
Great property. Only complaint was one night someone was having a party below us and it sounded like they were right in our room! The noise travelled through the walls. The location was great though!! Couldn’t be in a better spot- you can walk just about anywhere in Florence!
The property was beautiful and very well located. The staff did not provide enough toilet paper and the shower is very poorly constructed and floods easily.
Beautiful building with lots of character. Great location. Very nice room, comfortable, well lit, cozy. Super friendly and helpful staff.

Disliked: Staff & service
Extremely loud. All night long. NO LUGGAGE STORAGE - despite the expedia ad stating it’s one of the perks. Ruined the trip having to find storage, lost my timed Uffizi ticket. Lots and lots of stairs and doors. Definitely wouldn’t stay again ever and don’t recommend this place at all. Staff didn’t care that my plans were ruined and I lost €. Never again.
It is centrally located. Very convenient to visit different locations. It is quite noisy and you have to climb quite a lot and open many doors to reach to the room.
