The room we received looked nothing like the pictures. Everything was old and scratched up, could not cast anything to the tv. The ceiling fan in the bathroom was broken,the heater didnt work in the room, (it was cold). The attendant said they dont turn those on until December ?#?#?. The bathroom was very nice; but i am not sleeping there am i. I was extremely disappointed in this property as it did not look anything like the pictures...it reminded me of a truck stop,road side motel. P.S. The only plus ➕️ was the 5$ breakfast in the morning's, it was very good and the attendant there was stellar 👌 🙌

The room was clean and wonderfully spacious. There was even a lovely small balcony. We also enjoyed the breakfast. However the fridge in the room did not work and though I spoke with staff three times, nothing was ever done, not even a verbal response. Though we enjoyed our room, the building was rundown and unclean. I saw garbage on the floor in the lobby for three of the five days we were there. I even took a photo, if you wish to see it. The walls were dingy and looked as if the place hadn’t been painted in many decades. Another concern was late arrivals. Two nights we were assisting late arrivals because it was difficult for them to contact any staff to access their rooms. One night we let in a group of seven people to sleep in the reception area because there was no way for them to contact the staff to get into their rooms. No emergency number was provided, and no staff was on the premises. The family got to their rooms in the morning at 6am when the cook arrived to prepare breakfast. This is not a place I would recommend to anyone.

I booked from Expedia website. I paid for breakfast included when I booked hotel. Because i had to pay more when website asked if I want to include breakfast. I click yes. But when stay, the Residenza D'Epoca Palazzo Galletti said NO INCLUDE BREAKFAST. THAT MEANS EXPEDIA CHEATED US. WE PAID MONEY FOR BREAKFAST BUT WE DID NOT HAVE ANY MEALS. THAT IS TERRIBLE MAKE ME DONT WANT USE EXPEDIA IN THE FUTURE TRIP ANY MORE. WHEN I COMPLAIN ABOUT BREAKFAST, THE RECEPTION SAID IF YOU BOOK AT EXPEDIA, YOU CLAIM EXPEDIA. THAT UPSET ME. I PAID FOR THE MEALS BUT I DID GET THE MEALS. NOT FAIR. I TIRED OF GAME OF EXPEDIA WHICH PLAYS GAME WITH ME. THAT TERRIBLE.

Except the location everything else was bellow average. No night stands, no coffee or tea maker in the facility or in room. They didn’t change our sheets during the five nights stay. Breakfast was awful , they hardly had anything and what they had was terrible. The blanket they provided had hair all over was dirty. No bottled water in the room or the facility.

The only thing good about this hotel is its location to duomo. Otherwise it was dirty, EXTREMELY BAD SMELL (we stayed in Superior Room), fridge did not work, AC did not work, toilet flush intermittent, glass shelf hanging on by thread over toilet, side table cracked. We told the desk about the fridge and AC right away, and we got almost a shoulder shrug. Again on leaving the lady at front desk asked how stay was (a different employee this time) and when we told her our complaints, all that was said was sorry. Just as an added point, expedia emailed us the same night coincidentally to ask how our check in was and I emailed them all our complaints, no response from them either. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN ALL ASPECTS OF CUSTOMER SERVICE!!

We loved our stay in Residenza D’Epoca Pazzo Galletti. The staff were extremely welcoming and walked us to our room and showed us how to use the key, lights and hot water (we have travelled to a few places in Italy during this holiday and no one else provided this attention for us). The rooms are beautiful and bed were very comfy. The location is great, it’s close to restaurants bars and walking distance from the train station. Breakfast was also a lovely addition. 10/10 stay 😊

Historical place in central Florence
Let's call it a true period piece. That's exactly what Residenza d'Epoca means. There is no elevator in this historical building. The hotel occupies the second floor of a larger building pretty much in the center of Florence. Our room was exactly the one pictured in the Hotels.com advertisements. In the room one felt like being transported to an earlier century. The king-size bed was very comfortable and, overall, the room was very spacious. So was the bathroom with shower and European bathtub (long enough and deep enough to take a real bath in, which I thoroughly enjoyed). Some features needed updating like the light fixtures above the sink and the drainage of the sink itself. I am not sure whether I would like to stay in that room during mid-summer since there was no air-conditioning device visible. And without A/C in that huge room, getting a good night's sleep could be a real chore. Still, the room was a reall oddity and, therefore, I did like it very much.

Amazing hotel room with a beautiful terrace. This is a beautiful hotel with incredible staff. We were upgraded upon arrival to the most beautiful room with decorative frescoes painted on the walls. The space was magical and the kindness of the staff made our stay extra special. Breakfast and the breakfast chef was an added bonus. We would definitly stay here again. Thank you.

This is terrible place to stay. Our experience was even worse. The Air conditioner in the room was not working and showed E7 error. The place has strict check in time up to 7pm. The staff provided us with late self check in instructions. We contacted hotel staff through messages but the response was we cannot do anything at this time. The morning staff will support this issue. We kept the window open as it was suffocating with no AC. We didn’t realize that will have mosquitoes through. We had so many mosquito bites in the morning. Overall, horrible place. Run away and don’t stay here.

A big bed, but a very tiny breakfast
Nice location in Santa Croce, but a few things... The room we had (Giove) had a very cool Medici-sleeping chamber vibe, with forced perspective murals on every wall, high ceilings with exposed beams & a large elaborate light fixture hanging down. I make note of the light fixture, as it bounced & wobbled from a large group of children (??) running & tumbling on the floor above, all the way until 7PM. The desk clerk said, "Oh, that must be the school," as if that was a given. There would be an adult shouting, "Uno, due, tre, PRONT-O-O-O!," followed by stomps & thuds across the ceiling. And, while there was a bed, they must have forgotten the "breakfast" part of "B&B". The spread consisted of some cheese, some packaged dried-toast. We were offered croissants & coffee, but, it was very poor overall.

Dark and smelly but close to the Duomo
The building is dark and depressing, don’t open the window because the courtyard smells like a sewer. The room is pretty bare and the hot water in the shower takes a very long time to turn on. Also the city tax is 7€/day/person for this type of residence. Convenient for one night only because it is close to the Duomo.

Good location to explore Florence. We asked for extra pillows because 1 is not enough and they were quick to bring these. Good bathroom. A little unsure about some of the plug sockets because they would fizzle when using them, but otherwise it was a good stay.
