Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I was able to check in 2.5 hours early, the staff was friendly and helpful. The room was big with high ceiling and modern decor. There were 2 windows in the room which made the room even more spacious feeling. Bathroom had modern decor as well. The location of this place was so convenient, next to bus station, steps away from the train station, minutes walk to central market and city center. Would definitely stay here again if coming to Florence again.

This was an excellent place to stay. Very close to the Train Station the check in was easy you just fill out the online forms they send you enter passport and credit card and they only charge you the city tax if you paid for it in advance through Expedia or other site. They gave me a door code the morning of my arrival and the room was ready on time. The room was clean and safe. The bed was soft and comfortable. The breakfast was provided free at a coffee shop across the street pretty easy for a light breakfast to start the day. I would recommend staying here. No hassles no face to face interaction just a clean comfortable room.

Loved the location and the cleanliness of the property. The location made it very easy to drop off our luggage after arriving at the train station. Then we could walk all around to other sites, etc. My only issue with the location was the bed was a much harder bed than I was used to.

Excellent location in Florence. 5 minute walk from the train station and close to all the sites. Plenty of food options, and if you are really hard up there is a McDonalds on the corner. Quiet with great Wi-Fi.

Great rooms, just not much front desk service
Well, they have about a 2-hour window to check in, from 3 to 4:30, and to check out, from about 8:30 to 10:30, but if you can work that into your travels, the room was super comfortable, and actually had working air-conditioning, unlike the other 3 and 4 star hotels I booked during our Italian trip. On a busy street, but good soundproofing. As others have mentioned, the elevator is tiny, and can only fit one person with luggage at a time (not easily). If you can put up with the quirky check in and checkout, and the elevator, you can get a great room for a great price in a great location. Breakfast is OK.
