The only thing back for me .lm almost canceled they have 68 steps...it's 3 floor not elevadores...

Mirella, United States of America

Great location! Very clean and the rooftop balcony has amazing views- no need to pay to climb the Duomo when you can hangout on the rooftop terrace. The guy working the front desk (can’t remember his name) was very helpful in helping us book the museum tickets (since it was still high season). Also was very friendly and had good tips for eating and touring. Great hotel for the price! We were very happy with our three night stay. They charge for breakfast but it was worth the convenience- it was a basic breakfast with a fair amount of variety.

Janelle, United States of America

Great location, friendly staff, good breakfast selection. Although the area is saturated with visitors, still comfortable. Highly recommended

Eduardo, United States of America

Everything! Very clean. Amazing location with a 3 min walk to the Duomo. Awesome rooftop terrace view. AC worked well in the rooms. No complaints. The staff was amazing.

Gregory, United States of America

Great location only a couple of minutes away from the main sites. Friendly and helpful service. Gave stellar recommendations for lunch spots and must-dos in the city. It was also one of the only places we could find that did a small breakfast which was really convenient for us to start our day early with something small in our stomachs

The toilet is quite big but the shower room is limited to a very small size, I hope it could be bigger one.
Customer service is excellent. We didn’t request for the baggage carrying, they did it anyway for 3 floors. Our baggage’s were quite heavy so we really thank them for that. Marco and Mario are always helpful with our enquirers and being super patient to help us book gallery tickets. The view from our room is very nice, we appreciated it everyday. Location is perfect, close to everything with walking distance.

Absolutely nothing! The only downside if you are not physically fit is the four flights of steep stairs up. The staff kindly took our cases up and down.
Location wise this hotel is amazing! Two minutes walk from the Duomo and main square area, lots of great bars and restaurants on your doorstep and the staff are so helpful and friendly!! We loved it! Big thanks to Marco for giving us train times to Siena and for generally telling us about the area and useful hints and tips. He was fantastic. The roof terrace gives you a phenomenal view of the city, perfect for a morning coffee

A lot of stairs, after walking through Florence for a few days they can be a bit exhausting. Terrace flowers could use a bit more maintenance to liven it up. No safe in the room (the staff offered to store valuables at reception but I don't think that's really secure enough).
Staff were lovely, very knowledgeable and accommodated us with everything we asked. The staff carried our luggage up and down the stairs. Breakfast was nice and a good price. Huge room, bed was perfect, bath was great. Smelled really nice, presented well, pictures were very similar. I requested rose petals to be splayed across the bed and they put it in a lovely design of a heart with a few chocolates inside. View from the terrace made up for the unfortunate view from the room.

Very nice place, exactly met our expectations. The old building in the immediate center of Florence. We only took a bus once, when going to Fiesole. The terrace is fantastic, and the view of Duomo top from our tiny balcony was great! We didn't mind the steps to the hotel, even with the luggage. It just added to the authenticity of the whole experience. Many thanks for a great stay!
