Hôtel tres bien situé sans plus
Pros:

J'ai aimé l'emplacement de l'hôtel, la décoration de l'hôtel. Le personnel tres agréable.

Cons:

La salle petit déjeuner trop petite, nous étions à l'étroit, bruyante. Petit déjeuner tres minimaliste, jus fruit de tres mauvaise qualité quand au reste y a pas pléthore et pas tres bon. Tres déçue 😞
Dans la chambre minimaliste également.

Pros:

Hôtel was in the perfect location, 100m if that to the cathedral, so close to absolutely everything only a 6min walk or so to the river. Room was a decent size as well as the bed. Breakfast in the morning was als a good way to start the day.

It is only a 8 or so minute walk from the train station

I would stay here again if in Florence great value for money.

Cons:

The shower is small for the size room but that is not a big deal. Water pressure was great.
The walls are paper thin and you can hear your neighbours cough / talk etc. however you can’t hear anything of the noise from outside which is brilliant.

Pros:

Das Hotel lag sehr zentral, aber sehr laut.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war deutlich Renovierungsbedürftig (Defekte Dusche, Regal im Bad konnte man nicht nutzen, war kurz davor abzufallen, WC -Deckel defekt) Das Frühstück war sehr überschaubar, ohne Abwechslung und einfach. Zum Teil standen verschmutzte Tassen zwischen sauberen.

Se merita doar pentru locatia ultracentrala.Multe lucruri pot fi imbunatatite.
Pros:

Locatia. Este foarte central situat.

Cons:

Zgomot, la orice ora. Noaptea se aude tot, e greu sa adormi. Curațenia din camera, lasa de dorit, in baie era par peste tot din momentul in care am ajuns si mult praf in camera.Micul dejun slab si "murdar".
