“This place is perfect for me – great Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception, and kettles in the room. The staff carried my heavy bags on the first stay, and their warmth makes all the difference. I'm already planning to return for Christmas.”

8.4Verified guest

“Great value, very near the train station, and since Florence is compact, also close to the sights. Our room was spacious for two. The staff were kind, and breakfast was fine – don't expect a spread, but it's adequate for a quick bite.”
