Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This was a great find! The hotel is located in the centre of Florence, with the train station just a very short walk away. The hotel was immaculate and the staff were friendly. I would recommend. I'll be staying here again!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
La limpieza y el mobiliario excelentes. Nos quedamos en la habitación Florencia. Lo único malo fue que la habitación contaba con muy poca luz natural y el último día tuvieron problemas con la energía eléctrica por lo que tuvimos que empacar a la luz de nuestros celulares. La ubicación es excelente ya que está cerca de la estación de tren!
