Florence 2 nights

I booked a room with private bath, but, when arrived had to insist on it as they had me in without one. Took much longer to get to any of sights than listed on line. Traffic noise so loud at night I couldn't sleep. I went next door for coffee and bakery goods, instead of coffee from machine and commercially packaged items served. Staff was helpful.

Hotel staff was very good and facilities are nice

I am happy to give this review. I was there for five days. The staff is co-operative. only the problem is with language. I would like to suggest the hotel owner that there should be staff with more fluency in English language.The same will help your hotel business positively. Thanks

Pensione degli anni 60

Albergo vecchio con arredamento vintage, sembra una pensione di qualche decennio fa. La colazione inclusa era pessima: caffè del distributore, due tipi di merendine confezionate da discount, qualche fetta biscottate e marmellatine. Camera fredda, termosifoni accesi solo la sera. La mattina si gelava. Pessimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. A favore la posizione a 15 minuti a piedi dall'ospedale Careggi, la pulizia e la cordialità del personale.

Esperienza deludente. Non viene specificato in modo corretto se le stanze che si prenotano hanno il bagno in camera o è in comune con le altre camere del piano. Non credo che riprenotero'.

Далеко от основных достопримечательностей

Отель расположен далеко от "туристического" центра: от железнодорожного вокзала Санта-Мария Новелла 3 км, до Дуомо с баптистерием 4 км. Причём из центра к отелю идти в гору. Без навигатора ни за что не найдёте. Хоть отель "одна звезда", душ, раковина и туалет с биде - в номере. Горячая вода с хорошим напором. Завтрак очень скромный, но лучше чем ничего. Есть лифт. Номер нормальных размеров. Отопление не работало, а в конце апреля было ещё прохладно. Звукоизоляция отсутствует как таковая. Дают 2 ключа, от входных дверей и от номера.
