Overall I had a decent stay. The staff was accommodating but I didn’t expect the hotel to be so inconvenient and uncomfortable with super tiny showers and bathrooms. Also I didn’t expect to be staying in an old fashioned Italian home renovated into a hotel. Wish I had known this before.

The hotel isn’t difficult to find as long as you have a map, and it’s within a reasonable walking distance from the train station. There’s a small sign outside indicating the front door. I don’t recall any communication prior about the system for entering, but it seemed that I wasn’t the only one confused. A small group of us arrived around the same time and we were all poking the door and looking around until one person buzzed up. They opened the door remotely—it opens on its own, but very slowly—and then the gate will also unlock at the same time. Now that you’re inside the gate, there’s an elevator. It can hold two people or one person bags. The hotel is on the third floor (that’s the fourth floor if you’re American) and there might also be another locked door here. Don’t worry—you will receive keys to let you in all of these places. The reception area has places to sit, and I also saw a lot of baggage sitting around here, waiting for owners who had checked in or out. My room was up another flight of very tiny, narrow, winding stairs. It was clean and tidy, with coffee and tea and water and toiletries. There was a mini fridge, kettle, espresso pod machine and a safe. The shower was narrow, speaking as a fairly small person, and the bed was firm (which I like). The TV remote didn’t respond well, so I gave up on that. Other than the remote, my only real complaint is that the walls are thin. Your neighbors WILL hear your conversations. Other than that, it was great.

Great stay!
Great stat! The gals at the front desk were amazing, very helpful and friendly. Cleans rooms. Shower was small, but somewhat expected for Europe. Location was great because it is close to/in the more residential area of Florence so our meals/gelato/coffees were 100% better than when we got the same items in the more “touristy” places.

The hotel was not up to the cost of the room, which was dusty, from furniture to floor. The air conditioning didn’t work and the shower head didn’t work. Very disappointed ☹️ Would not recommend it to anyone
