“Vincenzo is psycho!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

I had booked 4 nights for my Mom and her two friends in mid Oct. at this hotel.
When they arrived, apparently, they did not like the accommodations at all.
Their complaint, later I found was the room itself; small and smelled bad; and the flights of stairs; the ladies are in their sixties and seventies.
They asked if they could be given a different room that was at least bigger but apparently this Vincenzo person became very rude and threatening so they ladies literally ran away from his place in fear.
I received an email from Vincezo saying that there is something wrong with these ladies and they have just taken off for no reason from his place! That he was going to charge them the full 4 nights!!!
At that time, I had no clue as to what was going on! I was quite concerned!
After, I heard from my Mom and heard the story I found the whole experience disturbing but after much walking and inquiring they had been able to find a place to stay.

Now after a few months I am receiving another email from this Vincenzo person which I am copying exactly as sent to me:

ciao
do you remember me

I'm vincent from hotel duilio in florence

you are very poor ...



What a psycho!
This person scares me even thousands of miles away!

“Lovely, Vincenzo!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 December 2011

I stayed here for two nights while travelling with my boyfriend. And I am so happy we did!
Vincenzo recommended places to eat, places to go, helped out with all our problems, let us choose rooms and so on. A kind man who is great at what he does - running this hotel.
The room was good, the bathroom maybe not as great but still not a big problem.
I would recommend this hotel to everyone, except people looking for a really comfortable room. There are a lot of other more expensive places to stay if that's what you want, but I promise that you'll never get a personal service at this level anywhere else in Firenze!

“Great location and value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 November 2011 via mobile

We were in Florence for five days and wanted to save some money so after reading the reviews about this hotel decided to stay here. The rooms are basic but very clean. Vincenzo is a great host, very kind and helpful, he even gave us a converter when we blew ours up and would not take any money from us. Great location away from the crowds and close to the river which was wonderful. Bathrooms are small but we were ok with that. Yes it is up two flights of stairs but Vincenzo helped us with our luggage so that was fine too. Thanks Vincenzo!

“We liked it”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2011

The location was great, a short walking distance from the railwaystation and also all the main sights in Firenze.

Viscenzo (spelling?), the manager, was really nice and helpful in showing us where to eat and which buildings to see.

Price was reasonable, but as a tip; Viscenzo prefered customers calling him rather than booking at online booking sites (we used booking.com)
