It’s okay. The place smells kind of weird and is definitely overpriced for what it is, but the man at the desk was very kind and helpful, and it’s in a very convenient location near the train station.

Not great, not terrible. My room was dated and a bit dirty, with a funny smell. Staff does not speak great English, no locked room for luggage storage. The elevator and stairs outside are definitely dated. Still, a comfortable place to rest while exploring Florence.

Good overall hotel except very uncomfortable bed which was too firm. Same as sleeping on the floor. Also a little overpriced.

Economical Stay - no frills, no comfort, low price
It was exactly what it looked like, an economical place to stay in Florence. There are many better places you could stay and in better locations with more comfort, but for the price, this hotel delivered exactly as expected. It was a nice alternative to be able to stay the night, grab a shower, and continue on my holiday.

A++ for us!
The hotel and staff were fantastic! The breakfast was well done and very tasty, not to mention affordable~ a very diverse spread for 4E each. I think my favorite part was the lovely patio/porch area off the dining room that we could sit and listen to the birds and the bells from the Duomo. The room was large and comfortable with a large window that opened to a "courtyard" balcony area. Also, the location to the shopping markets and the train station was perfect! 2 min to market for leather, jewelry, etc. shopping and 2 min to train. 7 min-ish to main palazzo. A wonderful stay! Grazi~

One day stay
Room was clean enough but not so spacious. It's acceptable because of the reasonable price. Staffs are kind. The hotel is close to the main station and central market, and also in the walking distance to Duomo and other sightseeing places. I had to check-out around 4am and go to the airport, but no problem and the staff called the taxi for me and it arrived in 3 minutes. There are several hotels in the same building, so it's difficult to find it a bit.

You should take this off your list
We checked out two night early since the shower was so small my boyfriend could barely get into the shower stall. He is a slim man so I can only imagine if someone has some weight to them.
Also, we had so many mosquitos in the room and they said, well, sorry there is nothing we can do about it.

Old hotel in a good location
This hotel is 5 min walk from the Firenze SMN train station. It is in the 4th floor of an old apartment building shared with many other hotels. The elevator was old and just big enough to fit in 3 persons with 3 suitcases - but it serves the purpose. Our room was in the 3rd floor within the hotel with no outside elevator access - so we had to carry our suit cases one floor while checking in and out. The room was small and the attached bathroom was extremely small, whatever we tried to do in the bathroom ended up in colliding with the wall, door or the wash-basin it was real challenge to maneuver in that space. The morning front desk person was extremely helpful and he went out of his way to accommodate our requests, night person was not so friendly, but we never had to do any interaction with them except for exchanging the room keys. Yes you need to deposit the room key while going out of the hotel. Breakfast was included in the room rate - it was adequate. The location is close to everything we wanted to visit in Florence and never needed any transportation. The room was very quiet, secured with triple glass window - which was very nice. If the hotel changes the furniture and the bathroom - it has the potential to be a very good hotel. There was a free buffet of beverages and pastries on the first night - however it was removed in the subsequent nights.
