The staff were very friendly and helpful when we arrived. They were also very helpful in taking our cars to the garage and bringing them back when we wanted. The room was very clean and also very quiet which is not always the case in Florence.
Unfortunately, they did not have in the reservation that we were bringing our dog although I mentioned in the reservation here and also I called a week prior to confirm. In the end though, it was not a problem however this error did cause a moment of panic.

The staff was great. We left something in the room after we checked out and when we called the front desk confirmed that housekeeping turned it over.
