Superb Stay Near Ponte Vecchio

fantastic locationhelpful staffsteady waterunsuitable placement

I found the location fantastic. It was surprisingly quiet given the proximity to the Ponte Vecchio. The staff proved very helpful. My room was cleaned daily by efficient staff. The updated bathroom included steady hot water.

I noticed the air conditioning was placed in a way that it blew directly onto our heads. This was not ideal at all and it certainly impacted our sleep.
