Room was very spacious with full size bunk beds with curtains around it. Perfect reprieve to spend two whole days and nights with a family of four after our flight was cancelled on bitter cold and rainy two days.

Hotel Calimala Florence
The rooftop was under construction and you heard hammering starting very early in the morning. There are no sheer blinds so if you opened the windows for light, people could see inside from the other building.

Hotel Delle Nazioni
Staff at check in and check out were friendly and helpful. Didn’t really talk to anyone else. Room was pretty loud even with window upgrades. Couldn’t cool off room so had the windows open when we could.
