I have stayed at this hotel every year for the past 5 years. My stays last for more than a month. I love the location - close to friends I have in the neighborhood, a gym, a great coffee house, many small restaurants. It is about 2 miles from the center of the historic district, but can easily be reached by bus. I find the staff to be extremely helpful in every way. They are friendly to each hotel guest and make every effort to make each person's stay enjoyable. True some rooms are small, my favorite room #7 certainly is. But I go to Florence to enjoy the city during the day and use this hotel as my anchor point. I plan to use this small hotel again next spring.

“This was the worst hotel of my life!!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 June 2011
2
people found this review helpful

There is no way I could possibly say one positive thing about this so called Hotel!!!!
This place really sucks, do not go there please....
I spent a week here. It was the worst experience of my life in a hotel. The towels were dirty and bedding drilled and odor. Hundreds of ants walked around the room. Room pictures appearing on websites not actual.The room walls were painted instead of being filled with the blood of insects killed by tourists staying here in past years! the windowa did;t have Mosquito nets, o I have pinched.
reception program was only between 8.30-20.30

“Horror experience! Falls information on the internet! Stay away!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2011

people found this review helpful

Beware!! Do not fall also into this hole! They call themselves Hotel but it is not even good for Rats! Not clean, already in the entrance! Inside it smells terribly, the room was in the roof without air! Not to speak about the bathroom where one won´t dare to touch anything!
And than when you will try to complain and say that according to the internet it is called a hotel but it´s not even close to one they book from your credit card the whole price of the place, which is etreamly expensive... we went directly to a Novotel nearby which was 1001% better and funny even more cheaper than this one!
DON´T EVEN TRY IT!!!!
STAY AWAY!!!

Hello

We are waiting your feedback, The guest has never stayed in our hotel, we charge your credit card, because she has booked the room and didnt cancelled the reservation within the time provided by the Policy of cancellation.

(She warned the day of check in at 18:00 that she would not sleep at our hotel on the day of Easter!)

According to the policy of cancellation we can charge all amount of the reservation ( we can 2 nights), but we decide to charge only the first night.

We have received threats by you of bad publicity if we dont give back your money !! ( so we wait your feedback)

We have the receipt showing that you have never stayed at our hotel.

Do you not think that should be ashamed to offend in this way, people who are working?

Please TripadVisor be careful to accept comments regarding the quality of the rooms by people who never go into a hotel and we have evidence of this!

best regards
Alessandro

“Disappointing”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 May 2011

people found this review helpful

I had read the often glowing reviews of this hotel before I booked, so I expected a place where the staff was very warm and welcoming. I did not find this to be the case. While not unfriendly, nor did I find the staff warm or helpful. For example, when I asked if I could borrow an adaptor plug, leaving ID as insurance, the answer was a cold ' no'. I was in a single room with no bathroom. I found the bathroom depressing, with just one small light. The single rooms are quite small. One benefit: free wifi.

Hello

These days the same person is writing a few comments about our hotel, I understand the desire for revenge, but to discredit a serious structure and that each day is committed to satisfy its customers is not a behavior that deserves respect from us.

The hotel does not have adapters for U.S. plugs if that meant, however, we never asked for this a documents, we provide remote control for TV, air conditioning, wifi without asking any documents, why we asked for a adapter?
If the room has no bathroom, how did you find the toilet depressing and a little light?

A Tripadvisor user name about your could avoid it, perhaps a review would be more credible.

(This is the third review written by the same person)

Thanks

Have fun
Alessandro

“Value for money, nice staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 April 2011

stayed in florence for a friday, checked out on saturday to roam around tuscany, checked in again for 2 nights on monday

Location: few blocks walk from Campo di Marte train station (a little bit of a drag if you have lots of luggage. Then again, i think there's a bus)

15 to 20 min walk to the Duomo so it wasn't much of an inconvenience

not many food options nearby (although the hotel has a restaurant but dinner time is till 730pm). relatively quiet area

Manager Alessandro: very helpful, pointed out locations for traditional Tuscan food etc. Very accomodating when we had to check in late 2 days later around 10pm (can't be helped coz the reception closes at 8+ pm , but not a big issue thanks to the arrangements made. Also allowed us to leave our luggage overnight and then helped to transfer our luggage to an upgraded triple room (with the murals, a nice touch). Friend didn't like the cold at night but Alessandro promptly provided a portable heater which was much appreciated.

booked a triple room- first night we stayed in a standard room next to the reception where cupboards were filled with the hotel's bedlinen (but who uses cupboards for a short stay anyway? not a big problem.) Bathroom tiny with shower curtain that wasn't much help but decent hot water . The upgraded room was 5 flights of steps up. Rooms were relatively clean but full of dust under the beds.

enjoyed the decent and Free Wifi immensely =)
