Great location, but noisy

Great location, only a short walk to the tower. However our room was right by reception and it was very noisy. We didn't get much sleep, but were only there for one night so it wasn't too bad.

Cheap and very basic but great location

Great location and lovely building. Friendly and helpful receptionist. The room was very basic and a bit shabby but the sheets were clean. Bathroom located down the corridor which wasn’t ideal, but it was a bargain price for the location.

Great room, great price,high walk ability score!

We stayed in Pisa one day and this hotel was the perfect spot. 20 min walk from the train station, and 5 minute walk to the tower. Room had great character, was clean and comfy and when we get home we are going to look for their towels.

Nice traditional room with private bathroom

We had a triple room with a double bed and one single. Nice and clean big room with a traditional Italian decor, includes a sofa and private bathroom which seems to be hard to find at this price range in Pisa. Filter Cafe opposite hotel offers excellent breakfast with discount for guests staying at hotel. Close to the Leaning Tower, 6/7 minutes walk. Only issue we had were the mosquitoes.

J'ai réservé cet hotel pour notre famille (4 personnes) et nous avons eu un appartement sublime, par contre pas d'air conditionné. L'hotel est situé au 1er etage d'un ancien palazzio qui a été transformé au centre de Pise. A voir et revoir.

Poor hotel, yet nice location

We had the suite, which was a bigger room, about 5 x 5 meters plus bathroom. No aircon, and that is a problem in July. No facilities at the hotel. This is a place where you spent the night and nothing more. Nice location.

Uncomfortably HOT!!

The overall hotel was nice, but it was unbeilevably hot and uncomfortable. The hotel had no AC and it was close to 95 degrees. The window had to be left open and there were people talking and partying outside until 0130, I could hear them through my ear plugs. I woke up several times in a hot sweat. We even asked if there was a fan we could have and they had nothing. I would only recommend this hotel in the winter when it is cool outside. On the other hand, the staff was nice and very helpful.
