My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were spacious, tastefully decorated, and clean, offering a comfortable experience, but the street noise and proximity to a lively bar kept me up at night. The location, right next to the Arno and close to major landmarks, was ideal for exploring Florence, yet the noise level could be bothersome. The service was top-notch, with accommodating staff present in every interaction, though dining options, while satisfying, were not exceptional.
