As is the case with most travel experiences for us, we always try to look for places that have outstanding people. We had not experienced this property but because of its convenient location to downtown Florence as well as proximity to the airport with only a 15-minute ride in the wee hours of the morning, we decided to give it a chance. It did not disappoint. From the moment we arrived and meant Ronny followed up with Albie at the front desk we knew we made a great choice. We decided to have a quick cappuccino at the attached Bar next door and ended up eating a bite of lunch there. The service from Cosmin and especially Ermira was simply amazing. While the room itself was a very typical European Hotel room that was small but adequate it was clean and appointed with Basics you need. In any event we will always vote for experience and cleanliness and this hotel was a great choice for us. We would also be remiss in our responsibility as a review writer to not mention Blaze who was there in the wee hours of the morning and knew that we would miss breakfast because of our early departure so he was kind enough to make us cappuccinos. Thank you Blaze

We used this hotel as our base camp, asking the hotel staff to keep our laege luggage for a few days while we went from Florence to Venice, and from Florence to Cinque Terre. The staff are all kind and very friendly. The rooms are a bit outdated but it is reasonably priced with complimentary breakfast and it is located very near to Firenze SMN train staion, we are very glad to have chosen this hotel.

Great property close to the station. The room was great, clean and spacious. The only negative was the window that could not close properly which allowed some noise from the road. Did not mention this to reception. Breakfast was awesome. Highly recommend this hotel.
