Reviews and Ratings
Despite some drawbacks like the room conditions and unapproachable staff, the hotel's strategic location near the train station and great dining options stand out as major positives.
The hotel had a few drawbacks like the rooms being dismal and hot, feeling like a prison cell, and being very close to the dining room. On the plus side, the service staff were helpful and friendly. The location was okay, and the dining experience was reasonably good.
The hotel is conveniently located very close to the train station and within walking distance to the city center. The rooms are simple but adequate, and the staff is friendly and helpful. However, the dining options may leave something to be desired. The location is fantastic for travelers using public transportation or those with a car looking for easy parking.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were extremely simple, with just the essentials, but they were kept clean. The staff was cordial and helpful, which was a plus. However, the place felt a bit outdated, like a temporary spot, and there were a few amenities missing like an extra pillow or a heavier blanket.
The hotel had some drawbacks like the cramped and tired rooms in the backyard, but the location was strategic for exploring Florence. The service was a mix of rude and friendly experiences, and the dining left room for improvement. The facilities were decent considering the room conditions.
The hotel is conveniently located just a 3-minute walk from Florence railway station, making it great for exploring the city. The rooms have high ceilings, but cleanliness could be improved. The service was below expectations, especially the broken air conditioner. The location is ideal for getting around the city easily. The breakfast was disappointing, not matching the advertised pictures. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient for my train journey the next day and offered easy access to the city center, but the room was old and stuffy with noise starting early in the morning. The dining options were limited, but the hotel had a perfect location for travelers by train.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The air conditioning in the rooms was very bad, and I felt the initial pricing was overpriced. However, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The location was perfect for train travelers and close to many attractions, but the dining options were quite basic.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the room was not the most comfortable, with some issues in functionality and a damp smell, it did feel spacious and secure. Unfortunately, there was no coffee or tea in the room. Service was a bit of a letdown with some unfriendly encounters, particularly the delay in finding a new room and the insistence on immediate city tax payment. On the bright side, the location was excellent, just a stone's throw away from the train station, making it convenient to explore the city. The dining experience varied, with a good range of food suitable for vegetarians but with limited options. The facilities, however, were not up to par, especially with subpar air conditioning. Overall, there were both positives and negatives to my stay.
The hotel is ideal for small individuals since the rooms are tiny, simple, and dated, but the staff is friendly and helpful. The shower lacks space and light, and the value for money is decent. The service is a mix of dismissive behavior and prompt, smiley interactions. The location is convenient for transportation and sightseeing, close to the city center and train station. The dining experience is satisfactory with good breakfast options, except for the Danish pastry. Overall, the facilities are somewhat lacking.
My stay at the hotel was comfortable and enjoyable overall. The location was excellent, close to the train station, making it easy to explore nearby cities like Pisa. However, the room temperature was unbearably hot at times, despite the continuous heating. The service was decent but could have been more accommodating during early check-out.
The hotel was really lacking in room decor, giving it a prison cell feel with just a bed, but on the upside, they were clean and somewhat comfortable. The service presented a mix of cozy friendliness and moments of rudeness. Despite being pretty basic, the location was excellent for train travelers and had good value for the price. Dining was nothing to rave about but typical for a continental breakfast.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very spacious, but it was a bit noisy as they backed onto an outdoor service area. The price initially seemed high, but the size of the rooms was impressive.
The hotel is in a convenient location, right next to the main station, making it easy to access places of interest in Florence. The rooms, although a bit old-fashioned, were clean enough for a comfortable stay. The service, unfortunately, was lacking, with incidents of rudeness from staff members. The dining experience offered a decent continental breakfast but could have had more variety. Overall, a reasonable choice for those looking for a well-located option.
The hotel is ideally located for train travelers and those wanting to explore the main attractions on foot. The rooms are spacious and provide a sense of security.
