Reviews of Hotel Etrusca

06 January 2012 Mary would recommend this property

Liked: Great location, very helpful owner and reliable wifi.

Disliked: The bathrooms were not great - poor drainage, no shower mat so really grubby and wet floors, broken shower curtain, and only 2 for the whole hostel...but, it's a cheap place for Florence so you can't expect too much I guess.

05 January 2012 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It is a safe hostel with a secured gate at ground floor before entering the building. Good location from rail station and bus interchange for those taking trains to outlet store. Very near to shopping district and museum as well. Strong wifi connection. Bakery, supermarket, restaurants eating house and bars beside the hostel. Free hot water and tea at hostel. Friendly staff. Comfy beds!

Disliked: Some problem with the flushing systems of toilet at times.

03 January 2012

Liked: The staff was really friendly. The owner was very helpful! The towels were big and the room had it's own heater. The location was great, it's near the San Lorenzo market and we walked it everyday to get around.

Disliked: The reception closed at 10 so other guests got really noisy. The walls were thin and we didn't sleep well. If too many people used the showers they got pretty dirty. If you're looking for a quiet place, this is not for you.

22 October 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: What was particularly good about this hostel was the staff and their help in relations to seeing Florence. When we first arrived the owner gave us a free map and on it marked off the major attractions, best ways to get each and recommended a number of places to eat, drink and the best ice-cream shop in the city. This made getting started and planning the trip much easier and they were always on hand if you had any problems or need help.

Disliked: Our room door faced right onto reception, which could get a little noisy or tricky if you were going in and out and not wanting to project your privacy.

09 September 2011 Ashley would recommend this property

Liked: The staff, Angela and her husband, were very helpful with providing tourist information (they both spoke excellent English). Thankfully there was a lift to get to the 3rd floor of the building where the hotel was so you did not need to carry your luggage up the stairs. The location from the main train and bus station was amazing and most main tourist sites were within 15-30 minute walk from the hotel. There was a microwave and fridge for the guests to use, so we were able to buy groceries and prepare some meals at the hotel.

Disliked: There were no internet/computer services within the hotel. The selection of cable for the TV was not great.

06 September 2011 Megan would recommend this property

Liked: The staff was amazing!! They were so helpful, allowed us to use their internet even after our technical "stay" was over, and did me a HUGE favor by allowing me to leave my bags there during the day after we had checked out.

Disliked: The rooms were kind of small, but big enough and very clean. There aren't individual bathrooms in the rooms, but you don't have to share with many people; so it's not a big issue.
