The hotel was fairly clean with extensive and good hot breakfasts. The location was magnificent and incredible, at a short distance from a 15th-century Renaissance mansion. The area was really beautiful short walk to main railway station, and an almost traffic free square, the beautiful piazza Santa Maria Novella. Because of a problem with premium room we were upgraded and had a top-notch room.
