Comments: super Lage, Bahnhof in unmittelbarer Nähe, man kann alles gut zu Fuß erreichen. Zimmer war winzig, hatte kleinen Innenhof, sauber, leise!!! kein Straßenlärm! Rezeption immer besetzt, auch Nachts. Wenn wir nach Florenz kommen, werden wir wieder das nette kleine Hotel buchen. Frühstücksraum im Untergeschoss erst nach Nachfrage gefunden, Frühstück - italienisch halt, eingeschweisste Hörnchen, Toast, Kaffee. Aber okay.

Comments: Exactly what you would expect from a one star hotel...minutes from the train station and internet cafes and plenty of places to eat and drink nearby. Staff friendly.

Comments: Location is the chief advantage of this hostel - near Duomo and train station, with many supermarkets in the area. The room was clean and quite comfortable. All in all, I can certainly recommend this hostel.

Comments: The room was very small, also the bed in our doubleroom was too small for two persons. Long way from the entrance to our room. With luggage steep stairs and long, narrow walks within the house. The location was excellent, the rooms air conditioned (noisy) with TV set. The toilet was small.

Comments: Less than five minute walk from train station, and about ten/fifteen to main sights - decent for price. Having a sink in the room was nice, but the rooms were a bit stuffy at night. The showers are incredibly tiny. Breakfast is satisfactory.

Comments: Nice decoation made it feel homely. Staff friendly and helpful (however one being over-friendly perhaps? but it made us laugh in the end, language boundaries made it confusing!) Mos able to speak a reasonable amount of english. Room was smaller than i expected and the bed slightly uncomfortable and seemed smaller than a double! Shared bathroon was very nice, and basin in room was useful, the electric fan was pretty awesome and room tidied everyday. Location seemed a bit shady with

Comments: Very good position, station is near. No breakfast, be aware. Perfect for those who prefer security and peace.. not for those who want meet people :) Clean place, friendly staff and cool position.. in summer, they have air conditioner! Just one thing: in our room we had one power plug! :)

Comments: We were upgraded from a double with a shared bathroom to a private one and we were in heaven. Our room was quiet, spacious, air conditioned and had a phone and TV. The staff were friendly and helpful and we really enjoyed our stay here! This hotel is only a few blocks from the train station and located in a multicultural neighborhood that offers up some yummy and affordable food.

Comments: Very nice little hotel, one floor up to lobby, another to the room, no lift. Limited English but very friendly, helpful staff, nicely furnished room with A/C and daily room service, nice price. Can walk to anywhere in old Florence from here, except perhaps Piazza Michealangelo.

Comments: The hotel is located very close to the the bus and train stations, so it is pretty easy to get around Tuscany. The shared bathroom was cleaner than expected too. A slight problem would be the mosquitoes though.

Comments: The rooms are neither spacious nor bright. The bathroom water seems to be clogging. TV was not working. The person at the reception was quiet arrogant. The hotel shows breakfast included in facilities, bt we are actually required to pay for it.

Comments: The hostel was not that easy to locate, as the signs that are on the streets do not necessarily depict the correct address. Often only 1 person at the reception, our passports were left right in the open when we were shown our room and that was not very encouraging. The room and bathroom were pretty ok too.

Comments: Clean. Do not stay if wanting to meet people. Do not bring a car into Florence. Parking is a beast and the one-ways will stress out the best traveler. Sketchy area of town, in my opinion as a single female.

Comments: Very cheap and centrally located. All noise from all rooms and hallways can be heard from your room. We stayed for 3 nights & barely slept due to the noise within the hotel (both guests and TV blaring all night in reception).The shared bathroom downstairs had no divide between the shower, toilet, biddet, sink so when you showered water went throughout the whole bathroom. AS there was no floor waste the bathroom stayed soaked all night.

Comments: This place was pretty good. my friend and i had a private double, it was small but practical, had a sink in the room. the shared bathroom was lame, the lights in the halls dont stay on very long. the old man who works there was kind of creepy...he wanted us to take pictures with him. haha other than his creepiness...always felt safe, held our luggage before and after check in/check out. not too far of a walk from museums and stuff, really close to train station.
