“While its central Florence location near tram lines is a definite plus, potential guests should be aware that this is more akin to a room in a shared apartment than a conventional hotel. Expect limited services and should be prepared for a more basic, independent stay. For travelers prioritizing location and prepared for a no-frills experience, it could serve as an adequate base for exploring the city.”
