Youth Firenze 2000

Muy buena atención . Muy limpio. Buen desayuno . Recepción excelente .

Está muy limpio y la atención es muy buena.

Suffisant pour y passer quelques nuits pour visiter Florence mais gros bémol : l’isolation des murs pas top du tout, nous entendons tout dans les chambres voisines et couloirs… il ne faut pas avoir le sommeil léger

Do not book this “hotel”. Bad neighborhood, smell of mold, AC not working, no heated water in the morning, toilet not working properly, not very clean.

Review of Hotel Firenze 2000 which also goes by Youth Hotel Firenze 2000. WARNING! Do not go to this “hotel”! I travel around the world and stay in hotels of various star ratings but I have never stayed in a hotel as bad as this one. Where shall I begin? It is a 2-star hotel, so my expectations were not high. I wanted clean and safe. To begin with, I was required to wire transfer from the bank the entire amount of the hotel stay, including the taxes. I reserved 7 rooms for 12 people. The cost was the same as the 4-star hotels, but I couldn’t get 7 rooms. Then, as I requested that 6 of the rooms have twin beds instead of one larger one, I was charged an extra $50 per night, per room. That was a total of $600 for 2 nights. (I was charged in Euros but it was similar to dollars.) When we arrived, we saw that all of the beds in all of the rooms were twin beds. Some were pushed together to make a larger bed. When I complained, I was told that some of the rooms were upgraded. The upgrade was 2 twin beds pushed together and a cot as the second bed. If you are required to stay at this hotel, do not pay extra for twin beds. It is all they have! I asked for the $600 back because they were all twin beds but was told no. By the way, they were all hard as a rock and looked like they were from the 1960s child’s bedroom and well worn. The tile floors looked stained with dirt. One of the rooms had a shower that had black mold around the bottom edges of the shower. The people in that room thought it was safer to just not shower. When I brought it to the attention of Aldo, who I believe is the manager, he said it is the silicone. I told him that silicone is not black and that it is mold. He claimed to not understand what I was saying. The mold was around the whole bottom perimeter of the shower. His response is that this is the best 2-star hotel. Nope! We proceeded to the next room where the toilet would not properly flush. He took the lid of the tank off and said it is broke and just take the tank lid off to flush. I told his that this was unacceptable but was told there was nothing he could do. Another incident occurred in the middle of the night. There was a room in the hotel with a crying child and a barking dog, apparently without an adult. I didn’t find out about this until the next day from the people in that hallway who were kept up for hours. I don’t know why the hotel staff didn’t contact the police and let this persist for hours but it ruined the next day for many people because they were exhausted. There is not an elevator so be aware that you will have to carry your luggage up the stairs. Some rooms have no windows. When asked twice to call taxis, each time it was a challenge. I don’t know if it was the system they use but I didn’t have any trouble in any other areas. I asked for two large taxis about 1 hour before we needed them but they didn’t call them until we needed to leave and then proceeded to tell me it was the taxi company’s fault. We had to

The staff was not friendly except for one young men at the front desk. Everyone else needs to learn customer service skills. They did not give us a couple of twin size beds, as reservations. Instead they offered a bigger bed which was not comfortable.

It says it is hotel in ******* but it is a kind of hustle place for youth. The bes was broken. And indicate false information in ******* such as distance from train station it says 4 minutes walking but it was almost 20 minutes with taxi. But the employee were nice and this mis information not related to the employee.

Don’t expect to be “wowed”, but this is a good hotel. You can walk pretty much anywhere in Florence. It’s in a residential area, and there are a few restaurants and cafes. There are more options for eating & shopping closer to the tourist, downtown area. Don’t plan on using a car! Parking is quite difficult in Florence, but this hotel helped me out!

double name hotel more for students breakfast poor, bathroom sink blocked shower door of the track parking too expensive for the standard of the place, needs TLC. the place was nice and clean bed bit hard.
