    clean room
    quiet location
    accessibility issue

    The room felt efficient, cold, clean, comfortable, and spacious. Unique location tucked away yet close to the historic center with minimal outside noise.

    No elevator, which makes carrying luggage quite the workout up a twisty staircase. The bathroom cleanliness could use more attention, with some hair left on the shower wall and a door that didn’t open fully due to floor obstruction.

    comfortable bed
    great service
    cleanliness issues
    accessibility challenges

    Convenient location near the train station and major sights in Florence. The room felt clean and spacious, with a comfortable bed making it easy to rest. Eduina provided exceptional service, offering tips on local attractions and authentic Italian restaurants. However, I encountered a few issues. The bathroom could have used a thorough cleaning as I noticed some hair on the shower wall. Also, the entrance was a bit tricky to find, and the lobby is on the second floor with no elevator. It made lugging my bags a challenge. Overall, the hotel has potential, but it could improve on cleanliness and accessibility.

    We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel! It was just a short walk to Piazza della Signoria, and the kids loved exploring the nearby beautiful shopping streets. Edwina was super helpful, even suggested some fantastic local spots that made our family meals memorable.

    My kids wished for a playground nearby.

    accommodating staff

    This was a fitting option for a short-term stay in Florence, with attractive and competitive value for money. The staff were very accommodating, which made my experience feel personal and welcoming. Be prepared for some stairs since there's no elevator, but the charm of the place makes it worth it.

    limited facilities

    The Single Room was clean, spacious, and had a super comfy bed. I loved how quiet it was, perfect for getting a good night's sleep after exploring Florence. The air conditioning worked really well, which was a lifesaver during the hot days. The only downside? No view, but it didn't matter much since the location was fantastic. I felt safe and at home here, thanks to the warm hospitality from the staff.
