Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
We stayed at this property for 3 nights. We had the family suite that was on the ground floor. First off the ac wasn’t working well that I had to go buy a fan from down the street to make the room at least enough for us to feel cool in the room. Willam and the men that work the reception was amazing. Unfortunately the women staff had major attitude and when I asked for an extra towel the lady in the front said “no” after I asked to speak to the manager she quickly changed her mind and gave me one. Not to mention when I checked out they wanted to charge me 10 euros for giving me a towel to use. The location is great. Breakfast is ok. Room was too hot. Not worth the place with the amount they charge for a room.

Needs to work on better service
The hotel was clean. But the service was sub-par. They advertise that breakfast is included but the breakfast opens at 8AM (in most hotels its 6 or 7AM). All the tours start by 7:30AM. The person at the reception who said his name is William was not customer friendly at all. We had to practically beg him to make a cup of coffee in the morning or have it self-served. He would turn off the A/C even when we were in the room at night. We had to ask him to turn it on every night.

Rude.
Overnight desk staff was incredibly rude and unhelpful. We were forced to relocate hotels after they would not allow our third guest to stay despite having a Triple room. I will be requesting a refund.

Great Stay near Train Station SMN
The location of the hotel is great, especially if you are traveling with train. It is located approximately 5-10 mins from the main Firenze train station Santa Maria Novella. The place is also within walkable distance from the Duomo Cathedral and main city center. The place is clean and very nice, comfortable. We had breakfast included with our booking, and breakfast was good. Coffee was very good. One thing to note is that bathroom is a little tight in size. Room also has everything you need, but it tends to be a little smaller in space. However, it has everything you need and we had no problem with the room/bathroom size, but it could feel a little tight for some people used to big rooms in US. Overall it was very nice stay, and would stay here again if I were to visit again.

Hotel was wonderful and the staff was incredibly helpful. Noise from hallways was a little annoying, but the small number of rooms per floor made it okay.
