I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, which offered clean, comfortable rooms with a unique touch of original paintings. The lack of an elevator to reach higher floors was a minor inconvenience, but the spacious layout and lovely balcony made up for it.

The dining experience was satisfactory, offering a varied selection but lacking a bit of flair. Overall, a great value for a memorable stay in Florence.
