The room we got was clean but very dated. We got a double bed but the mattress had a dip in the middle which made slipping uncomfortable. There was no chair in the room which female guests may need to apply makeup. On the plus side, the hotel had breakfast included and the staff were very pleasant and helpful.

Perfect location to walk everywhere in Florence… good breakfast, beds weren’t great but it was ok for a 2 night’s stay. Friendly staff but to be honest a bit noisy as we had a room close to the reception area. Overall a good place for the convenience of the location.

The good: The hotel staff was amazing. Omar was super helpful during checkin and in recommending nice restaurants and attractions in the city. The breakfast is really good. They had fresh fruit, pancakes, eggs and several other good choices. The bad: This is a hostel and had some private rooms which can accommodate families. Our room had 2 twin bunk beds. The hotel is dated and the rooms and bathrooms are not well maintained. Showers and sinks were draining slowly. However upon request the shower drain has been fixed. The rooms were not sound proof. We could hear loud conversations from the walkways and rooms next door. We had to call the hotel management to remind other guests about quiet hours. The property is a little far from the main attractions and restaurants. And there is construction on streets next to the hotel. I think it may be better to book a slightly better hotel closer to the train station and other attractions to save time and money on transportation.

I give 5 stars to staff, breakfast and location. I give 2 stars to the room, beds, toilet and the other facilities. It needs some renovations and plumbing services. But we had a lovely stay. Thank you to Omar at reception and all staff at the breakfast room. We are all lovely and very friendly. Grazie Mille!
