The Hotel itself was very nice and the front desk staff and bartender were great. However, there are a couple issues with this place. First, the shower situation was not great. The water was either scalding hot or ice cold with some periods where it was just right. Did not make for an easy shower. Second, the hairdryer only worked for 2 min then stopped (wife not happy). Last the breakfast person was not welcoming at all and seemed extremely disgruntled. Not what you want first thing in the morning! Overall I probably would not stay at this place again unless they fix the shower situation. Oh and be warned the street noise is a bit much but expect for this area of town.

Our experience at this hotel in Florence was deeply disappointing and far from what you'd expect of a supposed four-star establishment. The hotel is located in a very bad neighborhood—so much so that they lock the front doors after 10 p.m. for security. The building itself is extremely old and clearly neglected, with visible signs that it desperately needs repainting or perhaps even structural repairs. The dining room was shockingly small, unable to accommodate all guests at once. We were asked to schedule our breakfast time and given only a half-hour window to eat and leave. Because of the cramped layout and the lack of a proper barrier between the entrance and the dining area, flies were everywhere—making it impossible to eat anything that wasn’t completely covered. The rooms were equally underwhelming. On the first night, we were given such a tiny room that we couldn’t even fit our two suitcases. After complaining, we were moved to a slightly better room, but even that lacked proper ventilation. The shower was a safety hazard: the water temperature fluctuated wildly, suddenly turning scalding hot or ice cold. My boyfriend even burned his skin due to this issue. Frankly, there is nothing remotely four-star about this hotel—except the staff. The employees were kind, professional, and went above and beyond to try and make our stay more comfortable. Unfortunately, their efforts were no match for the hotel's many serious flaws. We give this hotel 2 star, just because of staff.
