Strategic position between San Marco Museum and Riccardi Medici Palace

24-hour front desk provides continuous guest assistance

“This is a good value for money, and its central location in Florence makes it appealing; the rooms, although small, offer air conditioning, a must during warmer months. While the basic breakfast may not be the highlight, the friendly staff more than compensates. For those prioritizing location and budget, it's a practical choice.”
