Good location close to the Duomo. Spacious but basic. The terrace was nice
The shower flooded whenever you turned it on and the staff did nothing to attend to the problem. Additionally this hotel is right next to all the study abroad party clubs and bars…. SOOOO LOUD WITH SCREAMING ALL NIGHT LONG!! It is a shame because it is a pretty building.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This is an excellent choice for location, good basic facilities in a grand historic building with tons of character.
No working remote for TV., emailed 3 times no one showed up. Shower drain clogged, was over flowing shower pan.
Contacted 3 times no one showed up. FYI on how many stairs to room would have been nice. Very noisy street, hospital down street, lots of screaming
Building does have charm
This hotel was fantastic. It was right in the center of everything. And it is very safe. You have about 5 different keys to get into different metal gates and doors. I absolutely loved it here. Definitely recommend, extremely walkable.
I feel in love with this place other then the many stairs to get to your room. I got the room with the balcony which I loved, sitting out in the morning to drink coffee or in the evening with a glass of wine. The ceilings are extremely high with beautiful murals on them. The rooms are spacious and the beds were comfy which was a good surprise. Just be careful on checkout day because they tell you to leave the key in the room and go, but when you get down to the bottom floor you cant leave without the key! Sooo many stairs to run back up, down, back up again and back down!
Broken glass left on the floor, I was bleeding out, we tried to contact staff and they were dismissive. There was a constant rattling and banging noise coming from somewhere which made feel very scary and annoying to sleep.
WOW! What an experience to stay in this property. I could imagine living in this period as I made my way to and from the room every day. The folks helping with check in and out were very friendly and responsive. The room was clean and had plenty of comforts when needed. Great location with a minuet walk to everything. My only want was for a room facing away from the main street outside the window. A bit noisy but manageable with earplugs.
A great location to get around and see most of Florence! Room was clean and had ample space! It does have a fair amount of straits to get up with no lift so was tough carrying up the suitcases but otherwise highly recommend
The building was wonderful; the room was also very nice. However, there was a little closed smell that went away once I opened the window. The reception was at another address (4 min walk) only open until 6 pm. Overall is a good choice.
Very convenient location walkable to nearly everything including some good restaurants and breakfast spots. The building is a bit rustic but has all the basic amenities. Our water pump / plumbing was a bit noisy but not to the point it effected our sleep.
Check in process was cumbersome too far to walk to leave luggage. Somebody should’ve met us there at the hotel and had a safe place to store our luggage. I still would’ve paid to have my luggage stored, but the walk was ridiculous.
Room was not clean when we arrived, bed broken, shower did not drain, room was never cleaned during our entire stay. Location wise it was good, other than that would not recommend.

Decent location, however, right down the street from a hospital so we heard sirens constantly
The property was beautiful and very well located. The staff did not provide enough toilet paper and the shower is very poorly constructed and floods easily.
This was a very cool old building in a perfect location- 4 minute walk to Duomo. It reminded us of staying in an old mansion. The rooms were large and the patio was great. The only negative I would say is that it is very sparse for such a beautiful building. Just adding a few more touches would make it seem perfect.
