“In my opinion, this property's location on the edge of the center provides a quieter base for exploring Florence. While some rooms offer pleasant views, I noted recurring issues with the advertised air conditioning, which several reports suggest is unreliable, and that is a serious drawback during warmer months. Though staff receive consistent praise for their helpfulness, the patchy maintenance and occasional breakfast mishaps detract from the overall experience.”
