This was a lovely spot to stay. It was clean and comfortable and had all that we needed. You can tell the property is taken care of well. It’s near the train station but a bit of a walk from the heart of the city. Still walkable for us but was about 20 minutes to get to the city centre which was about as far out as we’d want to go.

We really enjoyed our time! Everything was clean, it was nice having coffee and extra blankets in the room, and we appreciated having enough shampoo provided for all three of us. The woman that checked us in was cheerful and explained everything thoroughly. The patio area that we had access to was quite nice as well. If we come back to Florence we will definitely keep this in mind as a place to stay for the future.

The room was clean. Check in was easy, after messaging with the hotel when we would arrive. But you could hear every door open loudly and people talking in the other rooms. It was good for a couple nights.

El Roy Gardens was a very convenient, clean place to stay for your visit to Florence. It's proximity to the train station is a big plus. Neighborhood was quiet, staff was courteous and fees are very much affordable. I will stay at this place again on my next trip to Florence. Y - Boston, MA - May 2025

They were super accomodative with everything including sending someone to check me in early when I arrived in the morning and was expecting to have to wait. I can tell my room was newly remodeled as everything was new such as the bathroom, ac, mini-fridge, and bed. Definitely a great place to stay if you're traveling early from SMN as it's a 10-minute straight shot walk.

It was clean. No set reception so if you need anything you are on your own. No baggge hold since there is no reception. It is just renting a room. WiFi did not work. Really bad WiFi. But overall good for just a sleep and head out to sightsee. Sightseeing is a 10-15 min walk.

The room was clean and modern inside. Area is about 25-30 minutes walking to anything (food, activities, shopping, etc.) and loud has there is no insulation to help with outside noises or other guests. Staff was friendly but there’s no 24 hour front desk which they do disclose in description. Out AC went out night 2 so we had to sleep with windows open as the building itself is stuffy and humid

it was far from everything, The garden at the El Roy was not like it looked on Expeida. The rooms were clean, but I had to ask for more towels and toilet paper. There was someone to greet us but other people arriving there no one to greet them and they did not know where to go for info. I would not recomend this one , maybe for students

The room was ok and as described. It was clean and everything that we needed. Location was convenient although not the nicest. They charged me extra for a late check in which I don’t remember reading. This is a room in an apartment so there is no front desk. They responded to questions through the application.

Nice rooms near SMN - watch for checkin note

The room was spotless, roomy, and recently updated. AC worked well. The staff went out of the way to help us. I didn’t get their message asking for our arrival info (technical issue with internet service on our cruise ship) so arrival was a bit rocky. There was no sign pointing to reception so we were standing out on the street trying to message them until another guest pointed us in the right direction. At reception, a kind, service-oriented housekeeping staff member stored our bags and got us checked in so all ended well and our rooms were great.

Clean, functional rooms in handy location close to train station. Overall fair value for money. Poor communication from staff resulted in difficulty and lengthy checking in. No servicing of room between our 2 night stay, only given 1 bottle of water, 2 teabags, no milk in room. No milk at coffee station in reception area.
