Wir kommen wieder….😁😁
Pros:

Sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal. Tolles, sehr vielfältiges Frühstück.

Cons:

Da gibt es an sich nichts.
Wenn es etwas gäbe, was eventuell zu verbessern wäre, ist, dass es etwas laut war. Das Hotel liegt an einer Straße, die viel befahren ist.
Ich habe mit Ohrenstöpsel geschlafen, das ging sehr gut, meinen Mann haben die Geräusche gar nicht gestört.

Güzel
Pros:

Personel ilgili ve güler yüzlüydü. Tren istasyonuna 10 dk mesafedeydi. Valiziniz var ve ağır ise yorucu olabilir. Kahvaltı bizim için zayıftı. Check in saati olan 14:00 dan erken gitmemize rağmen sağolsunlar bizi odamıza gönderdiler. Fiyat performans açısından kalınır.

Lovely
Pros:

A lovely small boutique hotel. Fabulous staff, especially Brian who was so helpful. Our rooms were lovely and the breakfast is good. Fantastic location and our terrace was amazing.

Cons:

Everything in the hotel was great.
For information, even though our room was on the quiet side, there is some road noise.

Perfect place to stay for a mid-week break in Florence
Pros:

Looking at the map of the city we were a bit worried that the hotel was out on a limb from the main attractions but it was perfectly located and nowhere was more than a few minutes walk. The T2 tram from the airport takes you to Lavagnini at the end of the Via Poggi, then a five minute walk to the hotel. The hotel itself was clean, comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was very good with lots of choices. The staff were very helpful and friendly, especially the lady on Reception who couldn’t have been more helpful. We would definitely recommend and would stay there again.

Cons:

Nothing, all good.

Molto soddisfatti 😀
Pros:

Colazione dolce e salata, con diverse proposte, dolci fatti in casa molto buoni. Lo staff molto attento e disponibile. Abbiamo soggiornato con un bimbo di un anno e sono stati tutti molto gentili venendo in contro alle nostre esigenze. Ottima anche la pulizia e la posizione 👍🏻
