My stay at the hotel was truly delightful. The rooms had everything I could wish for in a 3-star hotel, from air conditioning to a mini-bar. The Tuscan architecture combined with modern art gave the room a lovely ambiance. However, be sure to request a room away from the noisy street to avoid sleepless nights. On the bright side, I was lucky to stay on the top floor with an incredible view of the Duomo.
