5.0 / 10.0
we checked in to the hotel and i was surprised by the small lobby, but then saw the larger lobby on the other side of the small wall and it was fine for having drinks in the evening. the room -- with a balcony and river view-- was way too small for two people for 4 nights! I was so upset, you couldn't even open the balcony doors without them hitting the bed. I complained and by the next morning they were moving me to what they said was a "step down" -- a much larger room complete with sitting area, bathtub, larger bathroom, and a closet. the first room didn't even have a closet. I was ready to check out because i was so upset but they changed me and all was good from there on. nice breakfast set up and service. great location -- right on the river and literally a couple of blocks to Ufizzi and about 6 blocks to santa croce!

Very classy hotel and very clean. Wonderful staff. Room was a good size and facing the river. Windows were soundproof. Highly recommend.
Only downside was the WiFi, it had a very weak signal.

Property was clean and staff were very friendly. Location was perfect for us, within walking distance from all our activities. It was a heat wave scorching the city during our stay; we particularly liked that the air conditioning was working well and housekeeping was not modifying our settings during the day so we always had a nice cool room to use and escape the heat. Breakfast was also amazing, we enjoyed our morning coffees and delicious food.
Our room was small but we felt comfortable enough during our stay. We would definitely use it again in the future.
