“Staying here places you steps from the Duomo, yet tucked away in a surprisingly hip, local-feeling part of Florence. Rooms are well-maintained with comfortable beds, and the building retains a cool, antique charm. I especially appreciate the availability of purified water and the friendly, helpful staff.”
