Very Good

Room was a great location walking distance to many restaurants shops and attractions. Very clean it’s just furniture is very old. Needs some remodeling other than that good.
Basic room and board, no refrigerator, good AC, nothing fancy but great location, everything works as is and makes economic sense. It's a one star but a great place to spend night as while explore the city. Oh and great water pressure.
The room was clean , air conditioning great . Walking around was easy . Not to far from cathedral , museums and other wonderful sites. Great food around . Staff were polite . Definitely would stay there again . Just one think I would like , for them to have coffee in the rooms .
The facilities are very old, such as the electrical outlets and the air conditioning; it would be good if they started replacing them with more suitable ones. Its distance from the city center is very good.
Great location, walkable to all sites, friendly English speaking front desk person, responsive to our issues/concerns, clean, spacious rooms with tall ceilings & the housekeeping was great! We would definitely stay here again when in Florence, Italy.
The room was phenomenal. The people were wonderful.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hundreds-years-old building is tired—in need of sprucing up. But our 2 rooms were fantastic! 4 stars for the stylish, spacious and super clean rooms. Easy walk to everything too. We’d definitely stay here again.
