    The shower was horrible, water flooded out through the bathroom during the shower. Parking doesn’t worth $$$. There’s a free parking( night)a little further.

    They gave us extra large room in the basement which is sufficient for 4 people.

    Great location as a starting point to go exploring Florence with a tram just around the corner. Great breakfast downstairs buffet style. For some reason the aircon was fine during the day, but each night around midnight it seemingly stopped blowing cold air and didn't blow cold air until morning around 6am - Reception was unable to assist when asked about it.

    wifi signal is weak.

    It is close to the historic city center and outside the ZTL. It has its own parking lot. The facilities are modern and clean. Bathroom is wide. The coffee served at breakfast is delicious. In particular, I would like to commend the staff, Mr. Raffaele, for being kind and skillful.

    Our aircon and fridge wasnt working however the staff were super friendly and provided us with a fan and an alternative for the fridge.

    Staff were awesome and very welcoming and friendly. Went out of their way to help us. The tram stop to the City Center was just a few meters away from the hotel and the train station is also very close. Overall our stay was really comfortable.

    The air-conditioning is controlled by the reception and stops during the night which is very unpleasant during the summer months.

    Room could have more space for 2 people. Would have been nice to use our TV if English was available when viewing movies.

    Location was very good to explore Florence one more night before airport departure in the morning. It was so nice of staff to carry our luggage up the steps in entrance and back down for cab in the morning. Appreciated staff calling cab in the morning for airport and cab arrival in minutes. Our room was very clean.

    The location…far enough away of all the hustle and bustle of the tourist but close enough to walk everywhere. The room as well as the whole hotel was just spotless. All the employees we met were friendly, courteous and polite. Loved the honeycomb in the breakfast buffet. Also loved the cappuccino that were made fresh and on demand. Would definitely stay there again if ever in Florence again and would and will recommend to my friends and family.

    I cant really say anything that I didnt like. To be honest, the hotel provided a very good service in every aspect.

    Breakfast was excellent, they had everything one would expect and for every taste. Compared to other hotels, above avereage at least. The rooom had a good size and the location, not being right in the historic center of Florence, was within a walking distance from it. Didnt need to use taxi or other transportation method.
