We found this hotel to be situated in a good location. Close to the railway station. The market is right outside the door. Great for shopping! The hotel itself was a bit of a dissapointment for us though. Our room was small, dark and gloomy. We had a twin room which only had one window which could not open and looked out onto a small courtyard which was open to the weather and seemed to be used only for storing odds and ends. You had to put the lights on in the room even during the day. No ventilation except for the air con. It was clean though and so was the bathroom. Unfortunately, the day we arrived it rained and hailed. This blocked the stormwater drains all through the city. The small courtyard next to our room also flooded and water ended up all through the hotel hallway. I realise that this was not the fault of the hotel but then all that night, all we heard was water dripping in to the couryard. Hence we were awake nearly all night. It seemed that the waste water pipes came down inside the walls of our room as whenever someone in the rooms above us flushed their toilets, all we could hear was a rush of water.... all night. The beds squeaked each time you moved. The reception staff were really friendly and helpful though. Breakfast was average. It was noisy at night with other guests coming and going till the early hours. There is another hotel above which shares the stairwell and lift which I think contributes to the extra noise. We booked out after only staying 2 nights out of 3 and found another hotel so we could get some sleep.

This is a small hotel which is extremely well placed - it is right opposite San Lorenzo and within walking distance of most of the major sights - including those south of the river. The rooms are basic but comfortable and we found the staff helpful and friendly.

Had a wonderful stay here. Good breakfast every morning, desk help were super helpful, room was clean, location was ideal. Many good small botique
restaurants in neighborhood, close to the main food market, walking distance to train station,duomo, arno river.

I have stayed 4 days in the hotel on November, 2010, everything is good and over my expectation , I believe the major reason is my bedroom is facing courtyard therefore is very quite. The size of the room is very roomy. They have free internet service on the top floor. There have a very good resturant with good value beside the hotel but they are open for lunch only.
The owner Eva is nice and helpful too. The breakfast is included and is acceptable. Don't expect too much when we live in a two stars hotel.
