Guests praise the exceptional location in the centre of Florence, close to the main attractions. The friendliness of the staff, the cleanliness of the rooms, and the charming outdoor terrace are highly appreciated. The absence of a lift to the third floor is the only aspect to consider for guests with mobility issues.
