This is an OK hotel, but a little spartan. We stayed for the 2013/2014 New Years (which is very nice in Florence, go to the Piazza Della Indipendenza, life music, great atmosphere for the event). The hotel is over priced, but that may have been related to the new years event. Regardless, the rooms are clean, but kind of old & maintenance is not up to date. Breakfast was ok, but not great. Staff is very friendly though.
