This hotel is very near from the Duomo, at the heart of all monuments and train station. But the first night we had to stay in the fifth floor, there is no elevator, and the room was noisy because main street was down. Nevertheless, the rest of nights we stayed in the first floor. At the reception desk the woman was kind, but I had a little problem with the old man staying at the reception at night. Maybe it was a problem of language, and he was not very kind.

Bien situado, cerca de la estración del tren y del centro. Sin ascensor, habitaciones pequeñas, baño horrible (sin espacio, la ducha lo inunda, la campana extractora es un infierno,...), las toallas son sábanas cortadas que no secan, el desayuno pobre,... En España no llegaría a categoría de hostal y me cobraron 96 euros la noche. NO LO RECOMIENDO.

Céntrico hotel, pero un poco descuidado en general, especialmente las habitaciones, y en concreto el baño. Además, carece de ascensor,y de facilidades para discapacitados físicos. El trato es cordial y el desayuno no está de todo mal. Muy cerca del Duomo.

The best thing about this hotel is it's location. Just about perfect for exploring the city. Not far from the station or bus-stops to visit nearby Pisa or Sienna. The room was decent. The bathroom was cramped, with the washbasin located outside it, in the bedroom itself, which was a bit inconvenient. Overall very good value for a great location. Oh! i forgot to mention the do not have an elevator! so stay here if u dont mind carrying your luggage up by yourself.

We stayed only one night and didn't even care if they charged us. The beds were the most uncomfortable things I have ever slept on and the lamps didn't work. The hallways were also poorly lit. I have to say the staff was great and was of great assistance. Sorry but I would never stay here again.

My mattress/bedspread was very worn down, though I did notice maid cleaning room next to mine that looked much better. Shower had toilet right next to it but it was fine for me. Room was very clean. Breakfast was fine, very friendly and helpful front desk staff. Would recommend and would stay here again.

Excelente ubicación del hotel. Muy buena la atención del personal.La habitación que teníamos era en el primer piso por lo que no fue complicado la falta de ascensor.La habitación era pequeña pero muy cómoda.El desayuno podría ser un poco mejor. Excelente relación calidad- precio. Volveríamos a alojarnos en el hotel si regresamos a Firenze.

The hotel is overpriced for the quality of the room we were offered. The bathrooms are particularly below standard, and there was a definite hole in our floor that had been carpeted over. The room's TV did not work, and the breakfast served in a room 4 floors downstairs was very average. Location was very good, but noisy. Give this one a miss.

camera piccola, pur avendo scelto la stanza grande, puzza di acqua stagnante, eravamo al 5 piano con delle strette e anguste scale, perché l'acenore non c'è, colazione ridotta al minimo indispensabile, 2 panini sul tavolo, solo caffè latte o te. Per il prezzo richiesto ci saremmo aspettati di meglio.

The Romagna is a nice little hotel right between the train station and the cathedral. This is The hotel strip, with several options around. The rooms are small and bathrooms smaller still (no curtains and no space for them... the shower is almost on top of the toilet sink). The price is reasonable for what you get, but if you have the time to look around, you can probably find a better cost/benefit ratio. There are 5 floors and no elevator. The rooms are quiet thanks to double storm windows and shade panes (the street below is quite noisy with several bus lines going through: must be hard in the summer if you like open windows...).

The hotel was good enough, with quite small room in the center of Florence. The service and cleanliness of rooms was really correct. What I don't really understand is why the price is so high in Italy! If you are seraching a normal rate hotel in Florence, you may choose it!

Shocking. The website photographs have nothing to do with this establishment. Apart from the staff that was very friendly, the hotel is in decay, dirty, a real put off. I wonder if there is any sense in choosing a hotel via the net again.

Was a pretty good hotel. The stairs were a bit steep and the crowd was a little young and loud, but the room and price was nice. I annoy easily with drunken 20-somethings. Location was also good.

Two points: 1) My girlfriend didn't like the towels. She has a preference for the fluffy kind rather than the teatowel-like ones supplied. 2) Watch that they don'r rip you off on your credit card like they did to me. Rather than charge me in Euros they converted to pounds and added around €5 commision.

the hotel was exactly what we expected: excellent situation, very good price, kind staff, confortable room... We recommend this hotel to people who look for a simple accomodation very close to the monumments and a very good relation between cuality and price. Breakfast is included but could be better.

The hotel is clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful and most of them spoke English as well. The hotel was super conveniently located within 3 minutes walk from the Duomo & truly central to the city. You got more at this stay then you would expect from the price. There's nothing fancy about it, but I would definitely recommend it to all as a good, solid tourist-class hotel.

The location is superb, two blocks southeast of Santa Maria Novella and three blocks northwest of the Duomo. The room was fine, though the shower in the bathroom is not enclosed and the toilet is missing its seat (as is the case throughout Italy, for some odd reason; was there a rash of toilet seat thefts?). The night clerk spoke NO English whatsoever and was neither friendly nor helpful. The day clerk spoke fluent English, and was both friendly and helpful. They do take credit cards, but there is NO AIR CONDITIONING in the rooms. Free parking nearby is a virtual impossibility. There is a garage a block away (it closes at 2:00 AM) with which the hotel has a discount arranged; they, too, take credit cards. All in all a fantastic place to stay if you are able to bear the lack of air conditioning.

The only concern I had was that our room had no toilet seat and one night there was no water for approximately 1 hour. There was also a yellow substance coming from the hot water tap before each use.

An excellently situated hotel, in the heart of Florence! Would definately reccomended it to others. The only problem was the noise as it is on a main road...bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper!

The room was better than I expected. It was however noisy at times and very hot. No fans or air conditioning was available. It was clean. The breakfast was a little skimpy, it was difficult to get through on the phone lines, and they offered no internet service; which would have been nice. It was conveniently located in the center of everything and close to the bus and train station. All in all it was not bad experience and I recommend it for travelers who are looking for the bare minimums in lodging.

This hotel was great if you want a nice base in the centre of Florence. We had a room on the top floor, which although there were over 90 steps to climb everytime, the view over the rooftops was excellent. If you would have difficultly with lots of stairs I would request a low floor! Breakfast was basic but fine.

on the whole it was fair for the price. although major disadvantage and advantage is its location: very close to city and train station which is excellent but quite noisy. Nevertheless I had a very pleasant stay inspite of this. Thanks

The people were extremely friendly, and the beds were comfortable. The location was pretty close to everything. It was quite loud in the evenings and much smaller than was expected. It was too much money for what we received.

We stayed in a loft apt. around the corner from the hotel (owned by the same people). Since there were four of us, this was perfect--the apartment on the inside was beautifully redone and very comfortable. We were a little nervous going in initially--down an alley, the outside did not look great, but once inside, we found a delightful apt. that was quiet, (in the middle of Florence). Also, the location, close to the train station was great for us. The owner was very helpful. Breakfast was simple, but good!

We found the quality of this hotel to be extremely poor. The rooms had a bad odour and had plaster falling from the walls. The toilet and shower were impratically tiny and it was very noisey with the traffic from outside (good windows could have reduced this). We moved from this hotel, after paying full price, to a cheaper and far superiour hotel 2 streets away. Hotels in Florence can be difficult to find and this is an example of one that uses this for its "Rip off the tourists attitude".
