superb location delicious coffee dirty carpet unfriendly staff
The location was superb! The breakfast had many tasty items and delicious coffees. Overall I enjoyed my stay very much.
The carpet in the room looked to be dirty. Also the room did not have a coffee maker. The staff were polite, but not overly friendly, surprising.

arno river magic!

prime location clean room friendly staff
i stayed in this hotel for a few nights. the location is unbeatable! it's so close to the ponte vecchio (literally steps away!) and many other attractions. the room was very clean and well-kept, i really appreciated that. the breakfast buffet (especially the pastries!) had a great variety of options and the staff was friendly and helpful. it was such a pleasant stay.
the elevator was a bit slow, i sometimes took the stairs instead.

Okay Location, Unimpressive Room

small room uncomfortable cot
I was not impressed with the room I got. The room was far too small, especially given the price. It was like they tryed to put me in a storage closet. The 'bed' was more like a cot and terribly uncomfortably, not a way to relax after a long day. I wouldn't stay here again because of the room.
