The AC definitely was not working. It felt like it was 100 degrees in the room it was suffocating. That in itself made the stay very uncomfortable for us.

I had a very disappointing experience during my stay at this hotel. Their website clearly mentions that the rooms have air conditioning, but when I arrived, there was none. I called the main office to ask about it, and they told me the hotel does not have AC, even though it was 80 degrees outside. I was left miserably hot and uncomfortable the entire time. On top of that, the room had no fridge, so I could not keep any drinks or food cold. The room itself was small, old, and worn down. It did not match what was advertised online, and I would not stay here again.

Bait-and-switch.

Working to obtain a refund. Our room felt wet and was attached to an outdoor space that was not usable as it was wet and the furniture was not clean. It was so humid we were concerned about mold. The room had wallpaper falling down. The heater was broken, there was barely any light and there was only one power receptacle within the room. The room pics didn’t match the booking and the Receptionist stated that was Hotels.com issue. Felt like a bait-and-switch situation. Opted to go to another hotel. Still trying to get a refund for the room booking and the city tax they collected at check in weeks later.

Disgusting Hotel! At this property, we were given a room WITHOUT windows! (Misleading advertising). The toilet was inside the shower. Please read that again, the toilet was inside the shower!!! The room didn't have air conditioning, only heater. The wallpaper was coming off and it had yellow stains. The buttons of the elevator didn't work. So, good luck trying to get in the elevator. The entrance doors from the hotel, had a sign in Italian that read: "Authentic doors don't work, open with your hands." Just pathetic! It's illegal to rent a room without windows; so, I don't understand why this hotel it's here on Expedia. We refuse to spend any time in the room that they gave us. So, we spent about an hour searching for another accomodation in Florence in such a short notice. Hotel Panama refused to refund our money. So, we're now still fighting for it with our credit card company. Don't book in this hotel. It's dilapidated! Shame on Expedia for suggesting this hotel.

They canceled my hotel reservation when I was on a flight from America. They called me but did not leave a voice message after being awake 40 hours they did not even help me find another hotel. Staff was very rude and apologized, but gave me no reason for canceling my reservation after I booked a month ahead of time. I do not recommend this place for anybody they are not reliable avoid at all cost.

This hotel is situated walking distance to some of the best spots Florence has to offer. Restaurants are nearby so you don’t have to rely on transportation. The only complaint that I have is that the wi-fi did not work on the upper level. I spoke with front desk and the manager about it and nothing was done about it. I thought a complimentary breakfast would have sufficed to compensate for the inconvenience but there was no remedy or offer to help mediate the issue. Overall, it’s a beautiful room that’s equipped with a bathtub and patio to smoke or catch a tan. Hopefully the wi-fi is better in the coming weeks

The room only had one window on the ceiling and it was super small, no lighting and felt suffocating. The shower and the toilet occupied the same space. So water just fell everywhere. Not really close to any tourist spots. The room was clean enough and the staff was nice but overall not worth it for the price.

The woman who greeted us upon arrival on the 13th of August in the afternoon around 4pm, was incredibly rude. She was not helpful in the least and gave attitude. The bedroom provided was not what I paid for or asked for. I had asked for 2 twin beds and we got 1 bed in the worst possible room. The towels smelled like white vinegar, there was no shower curtain and water would splash everywhere, the room was very badly lit, and to top it all off, we got ants all over our bags because I guess there is an infestation of some sort.

We loved the staff, the morning breakfast and location was walkable to Florence. The few issues we would have appreciated a bit more: it was the hottest week on record and our room was not cool enough after being out all day. The bed was very hard, that made resting in a hotter room after a long day of walking through Italy a challenge too. The shower was tricky to learn because it didn’t have a curtain and we had to try hard not to splash water on the floor. Otherwise- we looked forward to the breakfast and the quaint look of the hotel.

This hotel is a fraud. No AC - claiming to fix AC but no one showed up - check all reviews running into this same problem. Lied to Expedia that they fixed AC after we left therefore declined to refund. Actually we went back later to drop the key and knew AC wasn’t fixed at all. The air in the room was extremely stuffy and the window opened to the street, thus unsafe to open at all. Expedia customer service is willing to help, but the situation just got too complicated as the hotel was intentionally exploiting the communication and procedural loopholes.
