חוויה טובה מאוד, תמורה נהדרת
Pros:

מלון נחמד, מרכזי. נמצא באזור עם המון ברים ומסעדות ולא בלב הרובע העתיק, אבל עדיין מאוד קרוב לאטרקציות. ארוחת בוקר מצוינת. תמורה מעולה למחיר.

Cons:

במילה אחת - יתושים. נראה שזאת בעיה. מוכרת במלון, כי בכל חדר יש מכשיר נגד יתושים. כדאי לסגור את החלונות כשמגיעים שלא ייכנסו עוד.

Pros:

Close to train station
Friendly staff
They moved us to another room to accommodate our request

Cons:

They turned the a/c off for the season and we were not aware this would happen. We were in a street side room initially which made it very loud at night with windows open. They did move us to an inside room so we could open the windows for fresh air

Very close to train station and central to town. Full breakfast, friendly staff. Excellent shower setup!

Pros:

Muy lindo hotel cerca de la estación. Si bien es viejito se mantiene muy bien, esta limpio, es cómodo. En la misma cuadra del hotel hay muy lindos restaurantes, esta la perfumería histórica Santa Maria Novella y una ventanita para ordenar vino. Se llega caminando muy fácil a todos los puntos de interés.
La chica del desayuno es super amable y atenta!

Cons:

No tenia buena acústica la habitación. Se escuchaba mucho las otras habitaciones. Sobre todo cuando se duchaba y el personal de limpieza al empezar a la mañana en los pasillos. Tiene un solo ascensor bastante antiguo y a veces se demora mucho esperando. De todas maneras no son cosas q definan al hotel. Volveria a hospedarme.
