Michelle United States of America

Great location in Florence center, super close to the train station. A big market street outside the building. So many cafes and restaurants nearby. There was no noise in our room during the day or night, even though we thought there might be, given the location. The room was spacious and had everything for a comfortable stay. The staff was friendly and helpful. They allowed us to store our luggage even after the check -in and also followed up promptly before our arrival to make sure we got there without any hassles.
