Reading all the poor reviews for this hotel would have put me off but as we had little other option I reluctantly chose this hotel. Do not let the poor reviews influence your decision, the hotel was clean, the staff were super friendly and while the location wasn't ideal its a bus ride to the Duomo. I would stay again if in Florence.

Great hotel for family with spacious rooms and access to a pool (for extra money). Staff are very helpful and friendly. It is a 30 minute walk to Duomo and Centre of Florence. So you feel like you’re at at resort instead of a downtown experience.

Loved everything about this hotel. One negative comment is that every day more mosquitos found their way to our room. We don’t know how they were getting in. Also the air con unit leaked. But every other thing was perfect - bed, bathroom and bedroom was spacious, clean, modern etc. hotel was very friendly and easy to use

Poor reception service. Reallllly slow to handle our check in as if no care in the world. Hotel itself is clean with good sized room but old and we got bitten by mosquitos for a couple of nights. Far away from city centre but can walk to if needed. Area around hotel is ok. But would never stay here again.
