Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Small, no-frills property — With only 10 rooms, the hotel is intimate but lacks extensive facilities like a full restaurant or fitness centre. The emphasis is on a simple stay.
- No on-site parking — The hotel does not provide its own parking. Guests mention nearby parking, but it's not on-site and may need to be arranged separately.
- Check-in ends at 23:00 — If you're arriving late, you'll need to plan around the 14:00–23:00 check-in window. Late arrivals beyond 23:00 aren't covered.

The location in Florence was magnificent, right next to the Duomo and train station, with great-value restaurants and easy access to the airport tram. The suite was airy, the beds exceptionally comfortable, the bathroom spotless, and the staff were kind and always available.”
