It had everything as advertised—two comfortable bedrooms, two clean bathrooms, and even a washing machine that worked perfectly. The location was ideal. The tram stopped right in front of the building, and we were just around the corner from Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia Gallery. There were tons of great restaurants just steps away, which made dining out easy. We would absolutely stay here again! ##### Karen D.

The property is on the third floor with no elevator but generally worth the climb. If you are four adults, be aware that the second bedroom has bunk beds that are geared more for children than adults but doable. The place is funky, but dated with eclectic furniture, but the ambiance more than makes up for its imperfections ![View from our bedroom](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8d8f1a5e-f1cf-4919-8906-095c469d51ef-1751204466695.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Avrum M.

It’s close to the stuff that a tourist wants to see (about 5 minutes from the museum that has the real David). I give it an 8/10 but with some minor TLC (ie: change some lightbulbs, fix the noisy AC and a fresh coat of paint) this place would be a 10. ##### Steve Stayed 3 nights in May 2024
