Not as advertised

Disappointed in this hotel, despite advertising they have multi lingual staff, free onsite parking and valet parking, they don’t have any of these. The rooms are clean and the terrace was nice to sit on but the whole place is generally fairly old and run down.

Unsafe dangerous despicable

Shocking absolutely not as advertised unsafe for solo travellers no lounge no bar as advertised. Staff rude, dirty do not speak . Refused a refund. Put on the phone to a random person who told me to Fox off!! Stay away!!! I would doubt any of the reviews are genuine. No point did I feel safe? This place needs to be removed from Hotels.com if you’re a single female travelling alone do not go anywhere near it.

At my request my room was on a low floor because I knew in advance that there wasn’t an elevator. This made my stay much more comfortable. The hotel is a 25 minute walk (almost completely flat) to the historic area. Very convenient location.

Very little communication, couldn’t even sleep there one of the nights because we were locked out and no one will give you the code when you check in you have to ask. The second night I was woken up to banging on the front door at 3 am by another couple people being locked out. They had the key code and it still didn’t work. Bathrooms are not clean. Spent a lot of money just to sleep outside the first night, the next day when we finally got into bed we only had a few hours of sleep before the staff was unlocking our door and trying to come in while we were asleep. Very unprofessional 0/10. Don’t stay here, the Casaldo’s rooms next door is way better and let us sleep in their spa because they had no rooms for the night and kept us off the street.

Nice and clean hotel. Our room had a balcony with a pretty view. Staff speaks some English and Spanish, they are all very polite and helpful. Location is okay and safe but you will need to take a taxi to train terminal or downtown to the touristic attractions ($15-20 euros) Good breakfast too. Overall recommend.

The hotel was not in bad condition and the breakfast was decent. Staff were friendly for most part. The hotel is a long walk from the city center, but a train station and bus options are nearby. The biggest problem is that they did not let me use the air conditioner. The lady at reception told me that by Florence law air conditioning cannot be used until June. I was on the third floor and there was a ceiling window I had to open to be able to sleep. Because of that mosquitoes ate me. Really concerned about catching a vector disease. My mattress was wet the day I arrived. I think the window was open and it rained. Bathroom drain smelled. There is a code to enter the property after hours and it took several tries to get in. First time it happened, I panicked thinking I was going to sleep on the street.

Upon arrival there were no rooms available, overbooked. Staff mentioned that there is no internet access, hence, no Fax/ copy machine access. They aren’t aware when rooms are available or not. Shame on Expedia that allows these type of Hotels available to people. It’s a ripe off. Charged me for the room for all those days. Expedia states that’s their policy? Conchetta, front desk drove us to another Hotel, is that their policy too? Very Disappointed!! I will never ever use Expedia again nor look at this terrible Hotel! After traveling for many hours the least you want to hear is that there is no room for you after you made the reservation.
