Great location, walking distance to main tourist attractions.
Luis, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I liked our stay! I wish that the pool would have been open longer in the evening as well as the bar.
Angelika, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Good location, amenities are average
Natan, 3-night trip

Close to station but on the whole just an average hotel
Abigail, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Lovely stay close to Santa Maria Novella train station, Duomo Cathedral, Gallery A academia w David, and Central Market. Clean, comfortable, nice breakfast, great housekeeping and a very much appreciated water cooler to refill your water bottles as you wish. Stayed 5 nights and would highly recommend.
Yvonne, 5-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location. Very helpful staff, not for you if luxury or pampering is what you need.
Stuart, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Everything was perfect
Moris Nasri Butros, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Clean hotel and close to the train station. Big room and easy check in and check out. Small dining area for breakfast. I would stay there again.

Licinio, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Everything was good except for the A/C making a lot of noise
Stephanie, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is currently undergoing renovations. We could hear some construction noise at the reception desk, but once we got to our room, it was quiet and far from the remodeling. Our room was very comfortable, with cold A/C and a large bathroom. The hotel is in a great location just outside the city center and a very short walk to the Santa Maria Cathedral.
Gabrielle, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff was friendly. Location was great. Room was nice.
Erin, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The location was fine, but hotel was undergoing construction, so a lot of loud banging all day! Also, power outage forced us to relocate.
Darlene, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Good sized room with spacious bathroom. Close to station. Quiet
Chris, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Breakfast varieties are ample with good staff serving. Hallway seems to be under renovation and looks messy and the room was quite clean.
Andrew, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

The hotel controls the central air conditioning system. The thermostat in the room will NOT cool below 24 degrees. The staff tried to accommodate and increase the fan but it was difficult to sleep with 26 degrees. There is a fair amount of construction on the street around the hotel but it is close to the train station which is convenient as you can walk there.
Mabel, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Would stay here again for next trip.

Bed was very comfortable and breakfast was great!
Angelica, 1-night trip

Alll good
SRINIVASA, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

I would call the property just fine. We had problems with the water, and if you have an outside room it can be very noisy at night.
Mike, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Hotel very close to the train station steps from the market and minutes from the tourist spots many options to eat and drink.
luis, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Walkable from train station and close to restaurants.
Jaime, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Close to the railway station and major attractions. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Cecilia, 13-night trip

8/10 Good

Cute and small hotel about a 15 minute walk to town center. Breakfast was good. Currently under renovation and somewhat dusty from same. Renovation supplies in common areas. Completed renovation in poor quality as the shower doors came off the track and fell on me coming out of the shower. Electric outlet in bathroom not working. Refrigerator not cooling. I think we could have done better for the money. On the upside, the sale market was around the corner where we picked up some nice leather items
Cathy, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff at front desk were great
Roxana, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Wouldn't stay here again

Hotel was clean and staff was very polite Unfortunately, the relatively new shower had a backed up drain and flat bottom, not angled to the drain and water ran all over the floor. Toilet also had faulty seal and leaked Staff was very nonchalant about the problems and suggested we use towels to moo up the water. Rooms were also very noisy from outside and inside.
