“This hotel evokes an earlier era of Tuscan charm, steps from a vibrant market and within walking distance of Florence's main attractions. I found the breakfast on the patio delightful and the staff exceptionally helpful, even accommodating late arrivals for coffee. The rooms are comfortable and spacious, though new guests should note that check-in takes place across the street.”
