Fantastic Experience Near Santa Maria Novella!

helpful staff spacious room central location

The location is killer. It's right off Piazza Santa Maria Novella! I loved how close I was to the train station and all the main attractions. The staff was mega helpful, gave me awesome tips, and even annotated a map for me. The room was way more spacious than I expected, and I super appreciated the magnifying mirror in the bathroom. So many restaurants around make dinner easy!

I noticed some noise from outside during the night.
