Negative Reviews
negative:
Problems with the air conditioning
A worrying number of guests had some sort of problem with the air conditioning unit in their room. Sometimes it was just a case that it wasn't very effective, but many times it was more serious, with guests saying strange smells came from it when it was switched on. It got them thinking that they were not properly cleaned or maintained and might be a health hazard.
negative:
Killer mosquitoes
Well, perhaps not really killer mosquitoes, but guests did report that there were an incredible number of mosquitoes about. It seems this is a general problem in Florence in the warmer months, and required guests to go to some lengths to try to foil their attacks.
negative:
In need of repairs
A number of guests mentioned that they identified various repairs that needed to be made in their room. They were usually not big things, which made them wonder what they had not yet been attended to.
