Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel has its ups and downs. The rooms are well-decorated but not quite up to the standard for a 4-star hotel. The service, while friendly, could have been more efficient. The location is very good but may seem a bit remote to some. The dining experience is mostly good, although some improvements are needed. Overall, it's a hotel with potential but with room for enhancement.
The hotel room was spacious and very clean, though lacking in some amenities like tea/coffee facilities and an ironing board. The service was friendly, but some language barriers were encountered initially. The location was close to attractions and in a lovely green residential area. The dining experience offered a good variety of local foods but had some timing issues. Overall, a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel is a bit small, could do with a paint job, and the rooms smell a little moldy with a seventies-style decor. The location is residential and quiet, great for visiting Florence, and the dining experience, though hit and miss, offers a buffet with a great selection. The hotel lacks attention to detail in service but offers a good location for exploring the artistic area and nearby attractions.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, with classical furniture and a separate shower and toilet, but they could do with a refurb for a fresher look. However, the air conditioning worked very well. The service was a bit hit or miss - some staff were nice and friendly, while others seemed a bit stoned. The location was decent, with a quiet setting but still within walking distance to some attractions. The dining options were varied, but the hotel seemed a bit outdated. Overall, it was an average stay with some ups and downs.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms had a nice antique/modern Villa character, although they could use a bit more thorough cleaning. Despite that, the room was cosy and nice, and everything was functional, including the air conditioning, but a little updating wouldn't hurt.
The hotel offers clean and modern rooms in a villa style, but has a dated atmosphere with a lingering bad smell. The rooms are a good size and kept tidy, providing a comfortable stay overall.
