This is an older building with newer bathrooms. It is located within 19 minutes walking from the central train station. The units are spacious, with high ceiling, and have own bathrooms. Bathrooms are large and comfortable. Rooms are very well maintained by manager. The host is excellent in taking care of the rooms. Comfortable bed and mattress. I recommend this if you want to be close to the central part of Florence.

Good location but not clean

All the towels were dirty, bed had stains, the room was spacious which was nice but it air quality was not good in the room. Poor bathroom lighting. Recommend not paying for breakfast and rather eat outside.

It is located in a historical area of Florence. Duomo is about .4 miles away and 7-8 minute walk. Very safe except for the sirens of the policia which I would rather have over quiet crimes. The beds were so comfortable and doesn’t move when you toss and turn. Water in the fridge was so affordable in case you need to use their supply compared to other hotels we have stayed in. Hosts Guilia and Fabio are so kind and very attentive. We left early when we checked out and Guilia made sure we get our morning treats the night before ao we don’t need to look for food for breakfast and waste our time falling in line at restaurants. My sister Gigi and I were so happy to have stayed in this quaint hotel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Location & property sets the tone for one’s impression of a city/town it truly made us dislike visiting Florence our 1st time. It’s in an ugly part of Florence and bldg is dilapidated good for YOUNG BACKPACKERS. In fact young drunks staying there wouldn’t let us sleep. I informed employee next morning at check-out she said no wonder she found guest rooms wide open and passed out. Poor communication of check-in & check-out procedures given. I didn’t even know there was a check-in counter upstairs-poor signage very hidden. Poor lighting very DARK Hallways and creepy. Room had a breakfast menu sign but no instructions how to place order. Also pic made it seem like room had a balcony but it doesn’t. It’s actually upstairs down the dark hallway more like a fire escape w/sm table & chairs very hidden. This was our worst stay in our 2 wk tour around Italy would nvr go back to Florence.

Very pleased!

Really clean and spacious hotel. Our room was cleaned every day. Nice distance to main sites in the city but also very quiet and away from all the tourists. My only complaint is that the reception desk is only staffed from about 8-12 then nobody is available after that. Otherwise I would say it’s the perfect place to stay.

Great stay with fantastic breakfast

We had a lovely stay at this B&B which is a 15 minute walk away from Florence Santa Maria Novella Train Station. The room was very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed and breakfast included which was exceptional and our favourite breakfast of our trip. There was a great selection and you could choose each day what you would like from the menu and it would be delivered outside your door at 8.30am to have in your room. The staff were friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble.
