Great location; amenities limited-only one cup provided for our room with two ppl. Room is noisy as it is facing the street, not much difference with the balcony door closed or open.

Nice, large room that is conveniently located near the train station. We were pleased with decor, cleanliness, and surprising quiet at night of the hotel. I really appreciated the expresso machine in the lobby.
1-night trip

10/10

Excellent option in Florence. Great hotel, 5 minutes walking from the train station. Great benefit for us: independent check-in using codes for the different hotel doors. In our case, we knew we would arrive late after 10 pm, but we weren't sure of the time and it could also happen that we arrived even later during the night. So being able to fully check in by ourselves was highly appreciated. Very comfortable and nicely decorated room with everything we needed. Kind personnel. Breakfast is offered in a café across the street, it is okay but could be better (perhaps include something extra). Anyway, good enough to start the day quickly. I would come back to this hotel in my next stay in Florence.
