The room was a great size with a beautiful window! The location was fantastic. I think if they added a chest of drawers and more hangars it would be excellent. A refrigerator in the room would also be putting the hotel into an excellent room! Our stay was lovely!

reception available 24/7, friendly staff, clean and nicely renovated facility and room. next to the T2 tram stop, that takes you to the city center, train station and airport. the hotel is also within walking distance to the Dumo, and all attractions. There is a big local super market nearby the hotel where you can buy local food and products like the local, intead paying toruist price in the city center.

Everything was great.
It's not very central, but very well connected to the city center.
It has a vibrant and young feel.
Only two things to improve, in my opinion, are check-in and check-out modalities and breakfast, which can be a little richer in variety of foods offered.
Other than that, rooms impeccable, very quiet and staff always ready, kind and professional.

Overall, it is a good hotel. The staff is friendly and kind, which made our stay pleasant. One area that could be improved is the cleanliness of the rooms, as it wasn’t the best even upon arrival. However, after mentioning it to the staff, they promptly took care of the issue.

A great boutique hotel! Lots of great artwork and wonderul ambience in the bar, library, outdoor patio (everyone on the first floor common area), and great music throughout the hotel. The room was very large and clean. Hotel had good amenities and the staff was very helpful providing great recommendations for places to see in Florence and in Tuscany overall.

Great hotel, well appointed and quiet rooms (despite being on a busy square), attentive staff and casual vibe.slightly out of the main action, but an easy 15 minute stroll to all the centre. Tram outside the front door makes it super accessible.
