Would stay again

Fantastic stay. Hotel was in a great location and within a few minutes walk from the leaning tower of Pisa. Clean and quaint, the hotel was perfect for what we required (a bed to lay our heads!) Lots of restaurants nearby and a small shop too. Would definitely stay again.

This is a basic room with an included breakfast. We at in on the patio, with a view of the Eiffel Tower♥️ The location is AMAZING. Only a few minutes walk to to the Eiffel Tower and square, easy walk around the city and a quick taxi ride to the train station.

Perfect location

You couldnt ask for a better location if you want to be near The Leaning Tower. Room was bare bones, but clean and comfortable, and considering how hot the weather was a/c in the room was a major plus. Staff was very friendly.

Location, clean room, & breakfast with a view

Best attribute: location! 3-4 minute walk to Piazza di Miracoli with a bunch of shops and restaurants right outside the door. Friendly desk staff. Good breakfast selections with superb service by Getardo. Leaning Tower is visible from veranda while eating breakfast. Small room but clean and is all you need after a tiring day if walking around Pisa. Free wifi also. Door to hotel is locked at 2200 for security but guests can access the main door with electronic key. Hotel was about 12 euros from Pisa Centrale.
