charming stay near ponte vecchio

quiet location fresh pastries easy walk

the hotel had a lovely courtyard. i found the breakfast amazing, especially the fresh pastries. i loved how quiet the location was, yet it was still an easy walk to most attractions (it took me about 20 minutes to ponte vecchio).

the room was a bit on the small side, making it a little tight for luggage storage.

Dining

Breakfast included pancakes, yogurt, eggs, sausages, cheeses, and vegetables. excellent coffee was available. I especially enjoyed eating in the small garden (it provided a peaceful start to the day).

Small Room and Noise Issues

small room noisy entrance

The location was convenient for exploring the area.

My room was small , and the photos made it seem larger. It was also noisy. I heard every guest and worker entering the building because my room was near the entrance. It wasn't very relaxing , unfortunately.

Acceptable Stay with Some Minor Issues

good location comfortable bed good shower small room malfunctioning thermostat street level

The hotel had a good location away from crowds. It was only a short walk to the center. The room was nice. I found the bed very comfortable, and the shower was good. The hotel also had a lift, useful.

The room felt small, so the pictures seemed deceiving. I was hot , regardless of how I set the thermostat. I am almost convinced it didn't work, it seemed like it was just for show. I stayed in room 1, directly at the entrance at street level, so I was uncomfortable opening the window.
