Clean room, staff was very friendly and helpful with recommendations of things to do. Warning that there is a sewer/sulfur smell coming from drainage -after doing some research, this seems typical in some older neighborhoods in Florence. We kept the bathroom fan on all night and bathroom door closed as the smell is pretty strong.

This was a very last minute booking. Luca was very responsive on expedia and assisted with us getting a taxi and giving us a brief history of the building (which is amazing). It is located close to the train station. The room was cosy and great for our 5 month old, and the lift was very handy. The area is safe and very walkable with a variety of dining options. I would recommend this venue in a heartbeat!

What a great place to stay so much charm and history, our room was perfect , modern and very clean, good AC and a very nice roof terrace was perfect one of the best location in Florence 8 minute walk from the train station and 5 to 10 minutes walk to everything you want to see. Breakfast was next door at a partner restaurant was really good best cappuccino we had . When we arrived Mr Luca greeted us with open arms and full of positive energy , showed us around the hotel and made us a map of everything to visit and recommend the best restaurants that we were blown away best food we had in Italy half the price of Venice . Can’t thank him enough for one of the best experience. We are truly grateful.

Hotel is quiet, clean and only 2 streets away from Duomo Cathedral. The hallway going to the elevator can use some interior designing to make it more presentable, but I liked that once you get out of the elevator, the rooms are renovated and clean. Bathroom is is renovated and clean. I want to suggest air freshnera Staff in check-in counter is very nice too.
