great locationdecent breakfasthelpful staffdark room
The location is superb, especially near the Accademia Bridge. Breakfast offered good options and was worth the money. The staff helped with directions and explained local transportation very well. I also appreciated their immediate assistance when I needed an extra night..
The room I had was a bit dark. This might be typical given the narrow streets here.

Check-in and check-out were both simple processes. The room included effective air conditioning, a real plus. The elevator was very useful (especially considering the luggage).
The tv remote was not functional. The water drains did not work correctly. The bathroom flooded when my son took a shower. There was no one available to fix the problem that evening.
