2/10 Poor

To avoid this hotel at all costs
Our stay at this hotel was an absolute nightmare and left us deeply disappointed. On our first night, we were given a room that did not match our reservation—a cheaper room than what we had paid for. This was unacceptable, but the problems didn’t end there. On the third night, our room lost power entirely, leaving us without electricity all night. When we sought help, the staff on duty showed complete indifference to our situation and were shockingly rude. This experience was beyond frustrating, and we strongly urge others to avoid this hotel at all costs.

Nice staff, comfy & clean rooms + good breakfast!
Overall the hotel is very clean and the room is comfy. The condition of bathroom is great. The first day of my stay I ran into a cleaning lady that I did not get to know her name; she was very friendly and eager to help with directions. I also appreciate Julia the front desk lady and the breakfast area master Daisa—They are the most friendly hotel staff that made you feel like home. Also the breakfast is great! Both your appetite for savory and sweetness can be fully satisfied, while good coffee, tea, or juice await you. Highly recommended and I’d love to come back when I return to Florence again.

Nice Florence hotel!
Great location near train station and Florence sites. Easy to walk to many locations and to/from the train station. The room was clean and surprisingly big! That was a really nice surprise as we had to repack our bags and we had plenty of space. Staff was nice and friendly. Breakfast was simple but good. The only complaint was the small shower - I’m petite so I managed but my tall husband had a bit more trouble. Overall I would recommend!

Lives up to three stars.
It’s a bargain three star property. Staff and location are positives. Room size was very tight, but we were not there to stay in the room.

The hotel is very nice, it’s decorated with antiques. Our only complaint was there weren’t proper plugs for us to charge our phones. It wasn’t until our final day that I discovered plugs for our chargers .

Great Spot for a Quick Stay
Smaller room than expected, but we had access to the downstairs lounge during the day to help cool off in the heat wave. Staff was friendly and breakfast was delectable. Great value and location to train station.
