Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were nice enough, but I encountered a leaky ceiling issue that led to an early morning flooding incident, which was quite inconvenient. The cleanliness could have been better, especially with old stained carpets that bothered me. However, the service was generally nice and polite, and the location was excellent for train travelers. The dining experience lacked variety, but the staff were professional and helpful.
The hotel is perfectly located near the main train station and bus station, offering seamless travel options for exploring Tuscany. The rooms, while showing their age, served their purpose, although they lacked adequate lighting and sufficient power points. The service was excellent, particularly during crowded breakfast times, with attentive and friendly staff. The location couldn't be better, surrounded by transport choices and great dining spots. The dining experience, though not exceptional, covered various tastes adequately. Additional Details: Close to public transport and good restaurants, rooms were a bit outdated and dimly lit, friendly service during busy breakfast times, variety in dining options but slow kitchen staff.
The hotel rooms were clean and comfortable with a working air conditioner, but they smelled terrible like smoke. The service was top-notch with friendly and helpful staff. The location was excellent, with proximity to both the central train station and key city attractions. The dining options were decent, providing what was needed for a morning snack. Overall, the hotel presents good value for money.
The hotel had some positive aspects like comfortable rooms with efficient air conditioning but also some negative points such as cleanliness issues leading to a bathroom flood. The friendly and helpful service was a major highlight, though marred by arguing during check-in. The location was convenient for accessing tourist sites and transportation but with some noise concerns. The dining experience was mixed, with limited options and cleanliness problems. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
The hotel is tucked away from excessive noise, offering a peaceful environment. The rooms are adequate in size but showed signs of neglect with dust and debris upon check-in. The service is exceptional, especially the helpful staff who went above and beyond. The location is convenient, close to the train station but slightly pricier. The dining options are decent, saving on eating out costs. Overall, a good value for the price with some drawbacks.
The hotel rooms were rather small but suited our purposes well, equipped with all necessities like shower gel, shampoo, towels, extra blankets, and pillows. The service was comfortable and helpful, although not all staff members were equally welcoming. The location couldn't have been better, just a 5-minute walk from the train terminal. The dining experience had varied options but was lacking some choices. The facilities were satisfactory overall.
