Excellent location, very fast and easy check in, friendly staff. Rooms are a bit on the older side but you are in Florence! There is no reason to stay in the room.

Overall, good hotel. The best part is location and cleanliness. Staff is very helpful. Breakfast buffet is good. Rooms need update. If I go to Florence again, I would stay in the same hotel.

All the staff were friendly, very helpful, welcoming, and spoke English. Management especially kind and helpful over our need to leave a day early. Excellent buffet breakfast, but sadly, there was no bar in operation (early October 2022) - it had not reopened when Covid restrictions were lifted and so we could not have any refreshment after the kitchen closed at the end of breakfast. Fortunately the cafe/restaurant over the road was very nice, so we had our aperatifs there!

The place is well located, the staff is very friendly except for the person at the restaurant perhaps she was having a bad day but you can tell she was mad. I can suggest to add more things to the breakfast menu other than that was good.
I did not received any complementary drinks as per shown on my reservation as a VIP location.

The hotel you should stay away from
This hotel was not great. It was dirty, and the rooms were small. Worst hotel I have had in years.
