The hotel is located in a very good spot near the Duomo and train station, making it convenient for exploring the city. The rooms were quite clean and a good size, although the hotel seemed a bit understaffed during my stay. The service was very friendly and helpful, providing valuable information for my sightseeing plans. The dining experience was acceptable but somewhat lacking in variety based on the price paid. Despite the central location, the area could get a bit noisy at night although manageable with earplugs.

The hotel is conveniently located just a 2-minute walk from Mercato, making it easy to explore Florence. While it is in a busy area and can get noisy at night, the staff is excellent and anticipates guests' needs well. The rooms are basic but clean, and the communal balcony adds a nice touch for relaxing with wine and cheese. However, the noise levels, especially early in the morning, can be disruptive.

The hotel offers simple but adequate rooms that were clean yet relatively small. The service was incredibly kind and helpful, especially when dealing with noise issues. The location was central and convenient for exploring the city, though not the nicest part of town. Dining options were basic, with limited choices. Overall, a decent stay with some minor drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall, with a few minor drawbacks. The rooms were nice and clean, but a bit noisy due to outside sounds. The location was convenient but not very spacious. The service was good, especially the attentive staff at breakfast. The dining options were satisfactory, although it could get a bit repetitive for longer stays.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and provided basic amenities, but the view was rather dull overlooking Via Sant'Orsola, a bit noisy due to the metal kiosks on the Sunday market day and the interior gallery felt more like a ventilation shaft. The service, however, stood out as the staff members were incredibly kind and went out of their way to assist with various matters. The location was excellent, offering easy walking access to major sites, the central market, designer shops, and the train station. Unfortunately, the dining options were disappointing, with limited choices and an atmosphere that did not match the hotel's standards.

The hotel was a gem in Florence, with a prime location near key attractions and dining spots. The rooms were spacious and clean, but the understaffing was noticeable at times. The service was excellent, offering a range of amenities to make the stay pleasant. However, the dining experience felt somewhat lacking with monotone options.
