"Needs total remodelling"
Location excellent. Price was moderate vs other hotels in the city but cleanliness gains little points. I met other tourists who stayed at cheaper hotels , more spartan but clean. The grouting around the shower tray was covered with black mildew n scum outside the tray.. Yucky! Seriously hotel needs full renovations.. Carpets and drapes, bed covers […] etc.. I need not say more. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Would not recommend..."
The location was just perfect. Steps from all to do in Florence ... Walk to train station in 5 min., all the sites so very close, if that is indeed what you are after. The condition of the hotel .... Sadly, very dirty and dated our room had wallpaper peeling off the walls. Shower full of mold, walls clear duct tape repaired. Shower so small my husband […] could hardly move at 6'1" and average weight. Closet ceiling falling down... Window opened onto pigeon roost, curtains water stained. The smell of mildew everywhere. However ... It's the location... And the price is you get what you pay for... Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
I didn't like this hotel at all. The room was tiny with zero floor space. The carpeting in room and hotel was old and smelled old. The shower was tiny and you had to climb over the toilet to get to it. I would never stay here again and would not recommend this hotel. I'm surprised it's ratings on your site weren't much lower. We ended up having to stay […] in Florence for 2 additional nights due to a change in itinerary, and switched hotels immediately. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

During our 3 night stay, we changed rooms 3 times. All rooms had a strong odor as if the windows were not opened in years. Everything smelled awful that I couldn't even hang up my chlothes in the closet. Furniture were extremly old and everthing appeared to be dirty. Hair dryer did not work, bath tub was leaking, silverware and dishes were dirty for […] complementary breakfast. I don't know how this hotel received a 3 star rating.

"Only stay if no other options"
Lobby has a stale, moldy odor. Rooms are extremely small and have the same moldy smell. Bathrooms. Where shall I begin? Shower stall barely gives enough room to turn around and one can see mold around the base. To get in the shower one has to step over the bidet. I only wish I was a trained acrobat. That may have made it easier to maneuver. Hair dryer […] appears to be from the days of Mussolini. It looks like a minature vacuum hose with very little power. Not a hotel for women. Possiby hotel for students on a dirt cheap budget. Breakfast was very limited and disappointing. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Only things good were location & breakfast"
YUCK! Hotel is well located - only a 5 minute walk to the train/bus station which was our primary reason for booking it in the first place because we took day trips by train out of Florence. But location to the train & breakfast were it's only redeeming qualities. The lobby was dimlylighted even at night...plaster peeling from the walls, in poor repair […] all around. It was not possible to connect to the internet from our room so we had to use the lobby. The reception staff were pleasant enough but not particularly welcoming or engaging. Our room was large - probably because we were a party of 3 (for which we paid dearly!!) and it was the only place we stayed for 10 days where I felt uncomfortable walking on the carpet in bare feet... it looked & felt shabby & dirty. The bathroom was especially unclean & in disrepair - the last renovation job (am guessing 25 years ago) was a disaster. But breakfast was good - if that saves it for you. Actually what saved it was the fact that it was in Florence - a favorite place, regardless of the accommodation. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Bonciani"
This was the most horrible hotel I have ever stayed in. I was extremely embarrassed or mortified by the condition of the bathroom, and even more so because I had my daughter and her friend with me. There was mold all over the ceiling and shower curtain. There was an opening between the tub and wall, which was moldy. It was just overall disgusting and […] unhealthy. I can't believe this hotel would be rated anything more than a 1star. The Bonciani definitely needs major renovations, which are more than long overdue. I took pictures of the conditions of the bathroom, if anyone is interested. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"If you are easy going with a small penny"
Overall, when I look it up the hotel was a 3 star hotel. That was all I needed. It was authentic, front desk was nice, provided wifi (only in the lobby) and we thought was in a very good location. About a 5 minute walk to the Duomo and Santa Maria was on the other side that we could literally see sitting behind us from the hotel. A great authentic pizzeria […] on the left of the hotel was amazing as well. Shops were close if you are into designer clothing or just want a chance to check it out! We really enjoyed the spot!

great location near train station and easy walking to city center and most sites. good complimentary breakfast. Good hotel experience.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Flithy in Florence"
We were very disappointed with this hotel. The room smelled very musty, the bathtub actually had black in the caulking and the wallpaper around the window had what appeared to be black mold. Things did not appear clean in general.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Bonciani in Florence"
The hotel location couldn't have been more convenient. It is located very near the train station. (so I would recommend if you are going by train) The Hotel decor is a bit dated but appealed to me. I would say loads of character. It reminded me of a hotel from the 40s or 50s. The room was air-conditioned which is a must in the Italian summertime!Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Cheap hotel"
This hotel is cheap for a reason. On the plus side its very central and cheap. On the downside the room stunk of damp and mould up the walls, under the bed was full of rubbish and one of the receptionists was rude and abrupt to just about everyone - I think he needs to find a new passion in life! If you're looking for a cheap stay central in Florence […] then its OK. Otherwise I'm sure there are better venues Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Ok if coming in late from station/bus terminal"
We decided to stay here as it was close to the station and we were arriving very late at night. It is close and easy to find from the station/main bus terminal so is definitely recommended for that. The hotel itself is dated and could use a refurb - for example, there was a large section of wallpaper that was peeling off our bedroom wall. The shower […] is absolutely tiny - I can't even imagine attempting to wash your hair in there. Overall, it was good for what it was - but I wouldn't stay there for more than 1 night. There are plenty of lovely atmospheric places in Florence where you will pay a little more, but it would definitely be worth it. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Old and tired hotel"
Old and tired hotel. The carpet, the walls, the duvet cover were old and looked dirty. The hotel didn't allow you to turn on the air conditioner and when we opened the windows, we were greeted by a mouldy roof of another building and mosquitoes. The TV took so long to flip channels. The hairdryer was like an old vacuum breathing its last. The breakfast […] was sad. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Yeah, it's ok."
It's a reasonable hotel - it was a great location near the station and the Duomo, the staff were friendly, the breakfast was good, and it was clean. Unfortunately, it was aging and a bit rough around the edges - so while the room was cleaned everyday, it still looked a bit shabby. I got a great deal so it was very worthwhile but I wouldn't like to pay […] high season rates. And definitely not as bad as most of the reviews I read. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Bonciani - not so great."
Pros: -Great location! (close to the train station). -Relatively inexpensive for Florence. Cons: -Internet: This was very important to me and I was extremely let down... as the description promised internet in the rooms. The truth is if you are staying in a room higher than the first floor you can expect not to have any internet connection at all in […] your room. The signal doesn't reach that far. I was staying on the 4th floor and had to come down stairs each time I wanted to check my email... plus the connection was extremely slow... sometimes took 15-20 seconds just to load Google's home page for example. -The whole place has a strange moldy smell. -It's dimly lit and dreary inside. -The puke green color motif of the carpet, bed-spread, and curtains is not working for me. I felt uncomfortable walking barefoot on the carpet. -The bed blanket looked like it hadn't been washed for a year... there was long black hair all over it (not my own, yuck!). -The bed was hard and and the padding thin. The first morning I woke up my back was aching a bit... I got used to it by the second night though. -The staff is helpful as long as you don't ask them for help. -The breakfast was not great, the pastries we a tad stale, the coffee on-tap tasted like NesCafe, the plates were not washed with care, and they were still wet, and there was remnants of food still crusted on them from previous meals. -The rooms were very small and the shower was tiny and awkward to use. The blow dryer wasn't great either... looked like a vacuum cleaner attachment. -The elevator goes only to the 3rd floor so if you're on the 4th floor like I was you have to hall your luggage up a flight of stairs. -The rooms were a tad cold even with the heat on... the lobby felt like they never turned the heat on. -The toilet didn't flush well... occasionally I had to repeatedly flush like 3 times. Summary: I love the fact that it's close to the train station. I could deal with the smell, the lack of cleanliness, and t Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
