The location was everything! For a first time Florence-visitor, the location was the heart of the whole experience. The view was the Duomo, walk outside, one block and your standing next to fellow tourists and the Duomo! Walk in any direction from there and you’re on the front steps of all the cutest restaurants and museums and piazzas. Kevin was diligent through the check in process and was extremely helpful and understanding after my 12-hour journey to get there.
Keep in mind -
The stairs are a bit crazy. I like them for the purpose of a work out and i lived in New York for 2 years so i was semi-used to trudging up stairs cases.
Another noteable thing, the wifi simply does not work. Not at all. The only way i could even slightly use my phone (granted, at a low low level of service) was if i turned off wifi or turned on and off airplane mode. But it did not suffice. Again i wasn’t super bothered by this, it allowed me to spend time off of my phone and that was nice.
Overall i would stay here again!!!! (maybe not in the thick of summer, bc some nights were so hot i couldn’t sleep)
