Great location, only a short walk to the tower. However our room was right by reception and it was very noisy. We didn't get much sleep, but were only there for one night so it wasn't too bad.

Cheap and very basic but great location
Great location and lovely building. Friendly and helpful receptionist. The room was very basic and a bit shabby but the sheets were clean. Bathroom located down the corridor which wasn’t ideal, but it was a bargain price for the location.

Bellissimo e caldissimo
Bellissimo e vicinissimo al centro ma senza aria condizionata...
Hôtel au premier étage d'une maison bourgeoise, chambre d'aspect ancien mais propre.
Accueil charmant.
Proximité de la tour et du centre ancien.
Parking payant proche.
Muy buen servicio y atenciones sobre todo de franchesca. Nos localizó para guiarnos respecto a horarios de hospedaje y tips de llegada. Servicio muy bueno y de calidad
We stayed in Pisa one day and this hotel was the perfect spot. 20 min walk from the train station, and 5 minute walk to the tower. Room had great character, was clean and comfy and when we get home we are going to look for their towels.

ojo con los mosquitos
Recomiendo llevar protección para los mosquitos, en la habitación y en las calles.
Falta de aire acondicionado y baño propio.
We had a triple room with a double bed and one single. Nice and clean big room with a traditional Italian decor, includes a sofa and private bathroom which seems to be hard to find at this price range in Pisa. Filter Cafe opposite hotel offers excellent breakfast with discount for guests staying at hotel. Close to the Leaning Tower, 6/7 minutes walk. Only issue we had were the mosquitoes.

Not at all what we expected. Had to walk through a garage and up flight of stairs to find front desk. Very sparse with no normal amenities. Ladies at front desk were very nice.

Hôtel très bien situé et un très bon accueil par contre un établissement un peu vétuste...
una buona camera, anche per 4/5 persone:stanzaun pochino fané' ma comunquebuona di un grande appartamento,ottima posizione per visitare duomo e torre di Pisa
J'ai réservé cet hotel pour notre famille (4 personnes) et nous avons eu un appartement sublime, par contre pas d'air conditionné. L'hotel est situé au 1er etage d'un ancien palazzio qui a été transformé au centre de Pise. A voir et revoir.
We had the suite, which was a bigger room, about 5 x 5 meters plus bathroom. No aircon, and that is a problem in July. No facilities at the hotel. This is a place where you spent the night and nothing more. Nice location.
The overall hotel was nice, but it was unbeilevably hot and uncomfortable. The hotel had no AC and it was close to 95 degrees. The window had to be left open and there were people talking and partying outside until 0130, I could hear them through my ear plugs. I woke up several times in a hot sweat. We even asked if there was a fan we could have and they had nothing. I would only recommend this hotel in the winter when it is cool outside.
On the other hand, the staff was nice and very helpful.
