This is a basic room with an included breakfast. We at in on the patio, with a view of the Eiffel Tower♥️ The location is AMAZING. Only a few minutes walk to to the Eiffel Tower and square, easy walk around the city and a quick taxi ride to the train station.

You couldnt ask for a better location if you want to be near The Leaning Tower. Room was bare bones, but clean and comfortable, and considering how hot the weather was a/c in the room was a major plus. Staff was very friendly.

I love the location, is literally 2 blocks away from the whole Tower of Pisa complex. Our room on the 2nd floor had a huge balcony overlooking the Pisa Cathedral. The staff was also really friendly and knowledgeable in Spanish and English.

Location, clean room, & breakfast with a view
Best attribute: location! 3-4 minute walk to Piazza di Miracoli with a bunch of shops and restaurants right outside the door. Friendly desk staff. Good breakfast selections with superb service by Getardo. Leaning Tower is visible from veranda while eating breakfast. Small room but clean and is all you need after a tiring day if walking around Pisa. Free wifi also. Door to hotel is locked at 2200 for security but guests can access the main door with electronic key. Hotel was about 12 euros from Pisa Centrale.

Friend and helpful staff. Ar check in they gave us a map of the tourist attractions in Pisa. For a very low price they hold your bags after check out. The location does not get any better!! The tour of Pisa was visible from our room and less than a 5 minute walk. It was very clean and supplied with snacks and water to buy. I am looking forward to returning with my family.
