Consigliatissimo!!!
Pros:

Personale super cortese e disponibile!
La struttura è bellissima e in una posizione vantaggiosa, con la fermata della tramvia davanti alla porta d'ingresso.
Le camere sono pulitissime e i prodotti da bagno di cortesia sono di ottima qualità e buonissimi.

Soggiorno eccellente: colazione top e piscina con splendida vista su Firenze.
Pros:

Soggiorno davvero piacevole. Fin dal nostro arrivo abbiamo apprezzato l’attenzione ai particolari che caratterizza tutta la struttura: ambienti curati, uno stile moderno e una sensibilità concreta verso la sostenibilità. L’atmosfera è perfetta per una clientela giovane e dinamica che cerca comfort e qualità.
Molto gradito anche il prosecco di benvenuto, un gesto elegante che ci ha fatto sentire subito accolti.
Tra i punti di forza della struttura ci sono sicuramente gli spazi dedicati al benessere: la palestra ben attrezzata e soprattutto la piscina, che regala una vista panoramica meravigliosa e mozzafiato su Firenze.
Colazione davvero top: varia, di qualità e perfetta per iniziare la giornata nel migliore dei modi.
Un’esperienza molto positiva, resa speciale dall’ospitalità e dalla cura con cui ogni dettaglio è pensato per gli ospiti. Consigliato!

Cons:

Nulla di particolare da migliorare, soggiorno davvero piacevole.
