The room price is comparatively low during the fashion festival 2011. Room size and hotel location is fine. Very old decorated and lack of maintenance. Pictures on the website should have been taken many years ago. No lift and dark stairs. The toilet floor will become flooding and wet after bath. No choice breakfast and even no toast. Soundproofing is bad.

Nothing. Will never step into this hotel ever again. Hotel is run down. Should be classified under hostel instead of hotel. It's not worth paying for. There is a lift only for private use and we have to carry our luggage to the 3rd floor where the hotel is. Toilet is in such a horrible condition that my wife didn't take a shower despite the hot weather. There is a grumpy old man at the reception counter who refused to let my daughter into my room when she came to visit us. The door to the entrance of hotel is always locked and each time we pressed the bell, he grumbled. Supposed to stay for 2 nights but decided to leave after the first night. Will never step into this hotel ever again.

the breakfast was quite good... it means there weren't just the bread&jam, but as well pate', cheese,... The matress in the room 11 is horrible! Too soft, with the hole and you could feel the wires! The cleaning service is poor as well.

I found tragic the fact that we didn't have hot water in order to take a bath and the heat wasn't on although the weather was very cold during the period of my stay.

Lovely staff, very central and clean. I got a really good price through my travel agency. I would have enjoyed tea/coffee facilities and access to some ice. The lack of an elevator was also a problem since most of your guests would have luggage.

The location is great. It is close to Santa Maria Novella train station (10 minutes walk) and also to the Dom (10-15 minutes walk). The neighborhood is nice - you are safe at late hours, though is a little bit noisy. The hotel is clean and staff is very nice. Fair value for money.

Very near the train station and very near the centre and still at a low price! Staff are very friendly and available 24h/24. The cleaning lady was also very friendly. Got a map that was very useful. The room is kept very clean. The air conditioning works fast. There is even a mosquito repellent device, which luckily I did not need. Breakfast was nice too. All 15 rooms are on the same floor and the access to the floor is guarded always, such that you can leave your stuff in your room confident that it will not disappear...

I loooooved the staff! The boy at the reception was really amazingly helpful and nice. The location of the place is really good, walking distance from everything. The rooms were very simple but clean and towels were changed daily. The hotel did not have a lift so dragging the luggage up the stairs was not fun. One night I woke up because the man at the reception (probably the owner) was yelling on the phone in the middle of the night - my parents woke up because another guest was screaming through the night. So the walls are probably paper thin... Be sure to bring ear plugs, just in case. Also, no hair dryer. The breakfast was very modest.

Very uncomfortable bed or mattress, once slept there, back pain for 3 days. At night it is impossible to sleep - on the street permanently very noisy, even with closed window. Air Conditioning terrible, I think it does not work good - at night it is very noise in the room.

The location was perfect, so close to the train station and other sites. Also, I got a plenty of information by friendly staffs. Liked the cleaning lady so much every time since she smiled and greeted cheerfully and she made my day started with happy and warm feeling. The heater in the room only worked some hours at night, and it was cold. So I had to pull out extra blankets to spread on my bed.

“I really liked this hotel. It is in an ideal location we could see the roof of the Duomo from the hotel. The hotel is in an old Palazzo and the whole place does have a sense of elegance. I loved the quirkiness of it.” Joanna, Hertford |
