We needed a quick extra night near the train station due to the train strike. A room was ready so they let us check in a little early. This was greatly appreciated!

Would stay here again
This was a nice hotel that was walking distance to everything we wanted to do in Florence, close to the train station and close to all of the main tourist attractions. The breakfast they have is pretty limited, just a very small assortment of pastries, juices,and coffee. It’s good if you need something to eat in the morning, as we were unable to find any cafes open nearby (before 8am) unless you want to go to the McCafe near the train station. The room itself was decent, the bed was comfortable and quiet. The AC does not go below 25c. The area the hotel is in is also good, we had no worries walking back at night. I’d stay here again

This hotel was the perfect distance from everything we wanted to do! The leather market, Michelangelo’s David, the Duomo, etc. - everything was conveniently walkable from our hotel. The staff were accommodating and checkin and checkout were fast and easy.

Staff is friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great. It allowed us to save time and money. Rooms were clean. It is an old building, so it will be nice to have insolation between walls. It could benefit from some remodeling. The guest next door had food poisoning, so he kept me up all night. You could hear him throwing up and flushing the toilet. Having ear plugs would have been a nice touch since the hotel is in a busy street. Beds were comfortable. You can walk everywhere. Location is perfect. We arrived by train and the hotel was about 10 minutes walk. Very convenient and friendly personnel.

Extremely overpriced, very poor breakfast, and a very inattentive staff who promised several times to fix the safe, bring more water, etc. and never came through. The staff need a real training session in customer care. Definitely wouldn't recommend.

Please be aware there is absolutely no soundproofing at this property. We found the road noisy and especially the internal hallways. The door unlock system was extremely loud and you could hear throughout the entire floor. If you wanted to turn the air conditioning on and off you had to call to the front desk. It is 24/7 but not really a viable option in the middle of the night when someone else is sleeping. Room was very small. Location was an acceptable walk from the train station and found walking the city easy enough throughout our stay.
