We enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is currently undergoing renovations. We could hear some construction noise at the reception desk, but once we got to our room, it was quiet and far from the remodeling. Our room was very comfortable, with cold A/C and a large bathroom. The hotel is in a great location just outside the city center and a very short walk to the Santa Maria Cathedral.

Lovely stay close to Santa Maria Novella train station, Duomo Cathedral, Gallery A academia w David, and Central Market. Clean, comfortable, nice breakfast, great housekeeping and a very much appreciated water cooler to refill your water bottles as you wish. Stayed 5 nights and would highly recommend.

Cute and small hotel about a 15 minute walk to town center. Breakfast was good. Currently under renovation and somewhat dusty from same. Renovation supplies in common areas. Completed renovation in poor quality as the shower doors came off the track and fell on me coming out of the shower. Electric outlet in bathroom not working. Refrigerator not cooling. I think we could have done better for the money. On the upside, the sale market was around the corner where we picked up some nice leather items

This place was a nice stay in a very busy area day and night. It didn’t have excellent soundproofing from the other guests which is hit or miss for who’s there when you are. The bathroom was new and quite lovely, the room itself was a bit bare but for a place to crash it was great. Not a super romantic or long term stay on my opinion, but a nice place to have as a base near the train station.

Wouldn't stay here again

Hotel was clean and staff was very polite Unfortunately, the relatively new shower had a backed up drain and flat bottom, not angled to the drain and water ran all over the floor. Toilet also had faulty seal and leaked Staff was very nonchalant about the problems and suggested we use towels to moo up the water. Rooms were also very noisy from outside and inside.
