Very small one room space, narrow bathroom. Considering how busy the area is it was ok for one night stay for a family of five. Staff was kind to keep our luggage when we arrived about 2 hours earlier than the check in time. Breakfast fast was good, nothing fancy though.

They were helpful enough, but the room decor was very strange. Additionally, the small room’s air conditioner didn’t work, and the bathroom was very cave-like, as you could tell it didn’t originally exist.

The room was very spacious for 4 people, and the location is ideal for travel by train, as it is less than a 5 minute walk from the train station. Distance to the major tourist attractions is a bit farther but totally walkable. The staff is very friendly and we’re very accommodating when we arrived prior to checking time. My only suggested improvement would be a safe in the t’room to lock up valuables, and also a bottle opener and glasses, but again staff was accommodating with supplying glasses. Overall an excellent staff in a spectacular city.

Convenient location
The hotel is a a couple hundred meters from Firenze S.M.N. Station so it is very convenient. We stayed here to make our trip to the airport easier for a 6:30 am flight. It was easy to find and the appearance is clean. The rooms are decently sized. The elevator is useful, especially if you have luggage. The air conditioning in both of our rooms did not work; the units turned on and blew a bit of cool air but not enough to cool a room. They were clearly old and probably had not been maintained in years. Consequently, my wife told the guy that the air conditioning didn’t work asked if the hotel had any fans and that we could use. The worker said something to the effect of “that sucks, yeah we have fans. Oh, not really, we don’t have any. Open the window.” Right...
