The room was spacious with a balcony overlooking the garden. It let in lots of natural light too. The staff provided a map and suggestions for local spots to visit.
The breakfast felt fairly average for the price paid.

An Acceptable Stay

convenient locationcozy gardenkey attractionsuncomfortable bedshigh parking pricedated hotel
The hotel boasts a very convenient location near many key attractions. I enjoyed a quick walk to the Ponte Vecchio and several museums. The hotel features a cozy garden. It was a nice, quiet space to relax.
The hotel feels dated and needs some modernisation. The beds, including the extra bed, were not very comfortable. I found parking to be expensive. It was also uncovered.

A Decent Stay

convenient locationhelpful staffrooftop terracesmall roomdated bathroomnoisy air conditioning
I found the location to be convenient, a short walk to many attractions. The staff was helpful with directions. The rooftop terrace offered pleasant views. It was accessible at any time. Breakfast had a good selection of sweet and savory items.
My room was quite small. The bathroom seemed a bit dated. I noticed some mold in the shower. It detracted from the overall experience. The air conditioning unit was rather noisy.
