Great and friendly staff. The hotel was close to everything yet as quiet as can be at night for Italian standards. The breakfast area was lovely and they allowed guests to sit in the courtyard after hours to enjoy the lovely Florence evening breeze after a long day walking around. I spent a week here and would go back.

The room was beautiful and very spacious, clean sheets and towels. The morning breakfast was okay. The room AC could not be controlled and did not cool the room at all.
