Location, location, location! This place is in between the Duomo and Santa Maria Novella and is literally next door to the Medici Chapel and Casa Martelli. Location can't be beat! Breakfast every morning was well stocked, with lots of variety, and nice staff. The hotel staff was basically almost never there, but the one time we caught Luca at the desk and.paid the city tax, he was a wonderful and kind persob. Downsides - the place has an odor! This has been mentioned in other reviews. Our particular room wasn't bad, but the common area near the elevator and reception and presumably the rooms on in that area have a very unpleasant smell. Another downside, the rooms need a deep clean. They did change out sheets and towels and cleaned the bathroom daily, BUT the duvet that was on our bed (between 2 flat white sheets) was filthy with stains and evidence of past bedbug activity. We didn't see any bedbugs on the mattress, but the brown spots and blood dots all over the maybe never before washed duvet tell a story - gross! Also, chandellier above the bed is caked in dust. What can you do? The pros outweighed the cons, but with just a deep cleaning and figuring out their odor issue this place could be a real winner. With the location they have, I guess they don't have to put in that extra effort which is too bad.

Clean room, staff was very friendly and helpful with recommendations of things to do. Warning that there is a sewer/sulfur smell coming from drainage -after doing some research, this seems typical in some older neighborhoods in Florence. We kept the bathroom fan on all night and bathroom door closed as the smell is pretty strong.

This is the perfect location for a stay in Florence. It’s an easy walk from the train station and everything you want to see and do in Florence. The room is comfortable and well appointed. The staff is delightful. Make a point to get to know Luca. You won’t be disappointed. There is a lift for luggage. We did not experience any smell on our stay. Lovely all the way around

This was a very last minute booking. Luca was very responsive on expedia and assisted with us getting a taxi and giving us a brief history of the building (which is amazing). It is located close to the train station. The room was cosy and great for our 5 month old, and the lift was very handy. The area is safe and very walkable with a variety of dining options. I would recommend this venue in a heartbeat!

This property was horrible, falling apart no maintenance, no proper access to the reception area , we had to bang at a door that looked like the medieval times , no one answered . I had to call and let them know you’re trying to get to check in and finally opened the door. The hairdryer looks like a CPAP machine, no toilet paper , no one at the reception , It was one night ( thank God) .. if you book this place book it at your own risk , I don’t understand how Expedia offers this place .. the pictures on web are false advertising…,

The property was really well located 2 minutes walk from the Duomo. Really nice breakfast included in a restaurant next door. There is a small front desk however when we were there there was no one there. We received clear instructions on how to get there and get in. There was a foul odor of drainage during our stay it appears it was a general problem in downtown Florence. Our room smelled also, we contacted the administration and we were moved to a nearby property.
