I stayed at this location because the description of the hotel said it had an airport shuttle, but when I tried to book it, they said they didn’t have one. I had to get a taxi for about €45. If you are traveling by public transportation from Florence, this is not an easy place to get to so I wouldn’t recommend it.

Clean room, very clean bathroom. Elevator could use updating, but room had AC so I was grateful for that since I had a long hot travel day. Convenient location to airport. Would recommend for a quick overnight stay if you have an early flight!
