Located near the Florence train station and only 10 minute walk into the center, Globus Hotel is basic and clean, ideally located for exploring this small pedestrian friendly city.
Clean room, free wifi, free continental breakfast, in-room mini/bar/fridge, air conditioned rooms, and friendly staff. It serves its purpose and is excellent value for a short stay in Florence.
There are a few things that did lower my score, but I can't complain about my overall stay. My room (208) was at the back of the building and when the central air system turned on was like a rocket taking off, though after a few loud burst soon adjusted to the sound. The in room TV was small and the sound poor and tinny - however your visiting this fabulous city so staying in your room is just for relaxing - this is not a city to be watching TV in your room.
Overall it met my needs for a short break, and for the price was a great deal for a stay in Florence. It is no frills but clean, a good budget option for a short city break in a fabulous city.
