Room reserved on Expedia was not available on the 1st of 3 nights. We had a room with one bed instead of two and the shower was in between the toilet and the sink so water was everywhere. The door frame was rotten. The next two days, we had the reserved room with a closed shower. The difference in the price for the room of the first night was never reimbursed. Other than that, the staff was polite and it is walking distance of all the sites. Breakfast was very good.

No working AC amid a heat wave!!!

Hotel was good, very well located, very clean, and spacious room. However, the air conditioning wasn't working and we were tricked into believing that it would be fixed, which completely ruined our stay. This was in the middle of a heat wave in Italy and staff seemed indifferent about our room not having a working AC (as advertised).

Great location for the property and nice and welcoming staff. There is a nice view since rooms and breakfast are at 4th and 5th floor. we were allowed to have breakfast very early because of our early departure. Worst thing was about the shower in the bathroom: it had no curtain at all, but most of all, there was very little water coming out

The hotel is within walking distance of the main attractions, which is very convenient. However, there are some homeless people near the entrance, which can create a sense of insecurity. The room was clean, but the bathroom didn’t have a proper shower—just a wall-mounted faucet. There were no blackout curtains, and a streetlamp outside kept the room bright all night. It rained during our stay, and water got into the room. Although we reported it, the staff didn’t believe us and only gave us a few rugs to manage the situation. The room had no amenities other than the air conditioning, which was very much appreciated during the heatwave. The breakfast staff was very friendly, though the breakfast itself could be significantly improved.

Average, fine for a night. Access is difficult, location is good, but the street it is in is not particularly nice. Probably wouldn’t stay again and would have preferred to not have been there travelling alone!

Location was close to many attractions. Grocery store located accross street to get snacks and drinks. Room was spacious with high ceilings. Bathroom was on the smaller side. Breakfast was average. Staff was helpful and friendly. Small elevator available otherwise you have to walk four fights of stairs to get to reception desk.

The rooftop patio was a lovely feature, room was clean, breakfast was good, excellent location. A little quirky, office is on 4th floor, but our room was on the 1st floor. Ever time you left the hotel, you had to leave the room key. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

The location of the hotel was great. However, the shower was much smaller than anticipated. Additionally, the room window was left open leading to many mosquitoes. Finally, although breakfast was supposed to end at 10, it was mostly cleaned up with little food left by 9:30. Despite these drawbacks, the location and walkability as well as near by dining options make this a desirable accommodation.

Disappointing Stay – Outdated, Uncomfortable, and Poor Service Hotel Bodoni is well-located within walking distance of Florence’s main sights, but that’s about the only highlight. Reaching the fourth-floor hotel is a hassle due to a tiny, slow elevator that barely fits two people with luggage. Inside, we encountered a pest issue—mosquitoes and flies were present in the room and hallways, with bottles of bug spray left out, raising concerns about cleanliness. The room was dated and poorly maintained. The bathroom had no shower barrier, leading to a soaked floor, low water pressure, and one night with barely any hot water. The toilet also leaked, making it feel unsanitary. Service was fine initially but turned dismissive when we raised concerns. The outdated key system added to the frustration, with unclear instructions and a bulky metal key. While breakfast was decent and the location central, the poor facilities, bugs, and service made for an uncomfortable stay. Look elsewhere unless you’re on a very tight budget.

An older but nice property within walking distance of good restaurants and all the sites and attractions in Florence. Great breakfast. The room was clean and comfortable. While the bathroom was adequate (just!), it was clearly an add-on from the days when there was a shared bathroom down the hall.
