Our room had a vile smell of sewage the entire four nights we stayed. We would come back to our room and the the odor was so bad it made all of us nauseous. We made them aware of the situation after the first night and asked to be compensated for the major discomfort. They did not offer to change the room it is likely the hotel was full. We are certain the management rented us the room, fully knowing the problem. My teenage children did not want to stay in the room and complained the entire four days. We all dreaded going back to the room fearful of the wall of offense odor as soon as we would open the door. There is a recent review of the same hotel about a month ago from a traveller, Andrea Capaciolli on Feb. 2025 who stayed in the same room called the Massacio and had the same major sewage issue and they did nothing for him either. We came home to Vancouver and our luggage and clothes still wreaked of sewage...Shame on this establishment for renting this room. It is an unacceptable business practice. We were able to go into the room next to us and it did not have the same issue so it is is specific to the room. Also the morning we were leaving we saw a plumbing truck parked right out front of the hotel...We were advised by Andrea (the caretaker) that the owner would call us after the trip. Crickets... Don't let the rating fool you or you may be stuck with a horrible smelling room and a hotel that does not care.

Hotel is quiet, clean and only 2 streets away from Duomo Cathedral. The hallway going to the elevator can use some interior designing to make it more presentable, but I liked that once you get out of the elevator, the rooms are renovated and clean. Bathroom is is renovated and clean. I want to suggest air freshnera Staff in check-in counter is very nice too.

We had issue with hot water (no hot water for 2 days), room was clean and nice. Walking distance to everything. The day we left, the elevator broke down on the group in front of us and they were no one at the reception that day. They have a parking service with garage close by, that was covienient.

Difficult to find since there are 2 hotels with the same address #6. Breakfast is excellent in the next door restaurant with breakfast vouchers. Charming 600 yr old monastery turned into this 7 unit hotel on the 3rd floor. Staff very enthusiastic and helpful at check-in. Guest relation not on property 24/7, but accessible by phone…not sure how prompt since we did not need emergency services. Good bed, good A/C, good bathroom. Cleanliness rated low because of spider webs on the ceiling and visible dust on ceiling light fixture. We slept well because of the quiet room and the comfortable bed.

The room was very nice, good space, clean and nice bathroom. Getting to the property was a little harder and we had to call to find the entrance. The main door is difficult to find. They did provide access to a lift, which (luckily) had just been repaired - carrying 70kg of luggage up the dark steep stairs would not have been fun! Staff were attentive and very helpful, providing some good food recommendations. Property is in great location, walkable from the main station and to all attractions.

I liked the hotel, but it is not for everyone.

The rooms newly remodeled and in a hundreds of years old mansion, a very easy walk from the train station and the main tourist attractions in Florence. Since the bathrooms even at museums are not so great, it was a super convenient location. The staff gave us a map and tips on which places we should be sure to visit, making a positive impact on our visit. It was the only Italian hotel we stayed at that gave us shampoo, and it had all of the amenities including blow drier, towel warmer, bidet, etc. The breakfast was good. There is a roof deck! This hotel is not for everyone because (1) there were small mosquitos in the room that bit us at night. They gave us something that plugs into the wall that maybe would have gotten rid of these pests, but I don't know what it does or if it is healthy so we didn't use it. (2) The hotel is not handicapped accessible. We had to walk up a lot of stairs to our room. There is an elevator, but the first day we didn't have the code to access it, it is tiny, and did not work for one day because they couldn't get it fixed on a Sunday. (3) There is no 24 hour front desk. When we first arrived, we had no idea where to go and started to worry it might not really be a hotel. The room to store luggage and get keys is two huge flights us stairs up in an old mansion used for multiple purposes, and there is not enough signage to know where to go. At check in, we got a card with a phone number to call with issues, but there is not always someone on site.

A very strange entrance. Just a worn out wooden door with a piece of paper telling you to press the code to enter. Once inside it's a hallway filled with old dilapidated furniture. The lift brought us to a desk with an envelope containing my name and the room keys. No instructions on how to locate the room in this old medieval building. Not a very good first impression! The one good thing was the restaurant next door which seems to be affiliated with the hotel and the extremely close location to the Duomo.

Set on the top floor of a very old Florentine merchant's house, lovely old rooms and very comfortable. Afflicted with mosquitoes (both of us bitten overnight). Lighting in the room so low, it was impossible to read a book except in the bathroom and no public spaces for reading.Breakfast in next door restaurant by arrangement with hotel was OK but also in dim lighting... so dreary. On arrival no lift available and three floors up with bags... when he finally arrived, the receptionist gave us the key code for the tiny, ancient lift. Expensive for what it was.

Not like photos

The staff was amazing. Location was excellent, breakfast was really good. Sadly, the hotel is run down. Not like the photos, first impression is really old and broken couches in a bacement. The walls were very dirty, bathroom too. The linens were not great and it did not have any protective linens. It was only a one night stay so I tried not paying attention. Would not go again.
