Soggiorno Isabella de Medici

The one real plus was being close to the train station. The rest was a stressful mess. We first had to haul our huge bags to the top floor reception at Hotel Fiorita across the street, even though after checking in they sent us back to the hotel we had originally booked. Why make tired travelers carry everything to one place just to return to the other? The lift doors were often left open, so someone had to go shut them before it worked. Our room, number 10, was buried far from the others on another floor, and we had to drag the luggage up more stairs. We regretted booking right away. The room smelled moldy, and as our first stop in Italy, it was a big disappointment.

The simple building is a little dated, and there was some mold in the bathroom, but neither ruined our stay. We had a large, very clean room with a good shower and everything we needed. Tea and coffee were free, and the view from the top floor was a nice extra. The hotel is on the fourth floor of a building shared with other hotels and small businesses, with an elevator. It's close to the main train station and an easy walk into the city center. Prices felt fair, and I'd recommend it.

Clean room, good water pressure in the shower, and staff who communicate well. The location is excellent, very close to the train station, and the price is affordable. There's also an escalator.

For 102 euros, I had to check myself in on the third floor across the street. There was no breakfast, and no coffee, tea, or water in the room. At least it was clean. We were in room 3, tucked behind a double door, and had to work it out from the blueprint. The only person with the key was at the other hotel's third floor across the street.
