Il Gattopardo

The best checking ever! Just arrive and go to your room. No paperwork.. no hassle. The rest good location, good value and will stay there again. No AC so it would get warm in summer

Although the location is good (close to main tourist areas), the building it self is not very nice. There is definitely a mouldy SMELL as soon as you enter the front door. There is a slightly similar smell in room as well. Our room windows were to the alley/walk way and all noises echoed in that walk way. Anyone talking downstairs would sound like they are standing against the window. Windows have no sound insulation so be ready to be woken up by 6am if you're a light sleeper and you won't find quiet until around 12-1am either. The breakfast advertised is 4 packs of 4 biscuits, 2 toast, 2 instant coffee packets, 2 tea packets and a kettle that hasn't been cleaned. Don't count on it to be appetizing or filling. We did get room cleaning. We also accidentally chose the shared bathroom option and those bathrooms get cleaned once a day. Be prepared to walk into a smelly bathroom or water over the floor situation. Do not recommend this hotel unless you are tight on money and options. Just be prepared for hostel type of living.

This hotel is extremely close to everything you would want to do in Florence! We loved being able to dip back into the room for a nap without having to walk too far or use any type of transport
