L’hébergement était bien situé au cœur de Florence dans une rue au calme. La chambre était grande et très propre. Le personnel au petit soin et très accommodant.
Kelly
A wonderful spot to stay in Florence! The rooms were nice, spacious and very clean. Our hosts were also very nice and helpful. The location was great and could easily walk to attractions and restaurants. Would highly recommend!
Sue
This was a lovely property. Nice location and the rooms were very clean and well appointed. Very nice staff. Elevator, which was very helpful with luggage! Would definitely stay here again.

We stayed here for four days and three nights during our visit to Florence and had a wonderful experience.
The host was very accommodating and helpful throughout our stay. While it is possible to walk from the train station, we chose to take an Uber because we had larger suitcases. Florence's cobblestone streets can make rolling luggage challenging, but travelers with lighter bags should have no problem walking.
The location was excellent—close enough to easily walk to Florence's major attractions, restaurants, and shops, yet far enough from the busiest tourist areas to provide a quiet and peaceful night's sleep. It truly offered the best of both worlds.
Our room was spacious, comfortable, and full of old-world charm. The building had a unique character that added to the Florence experience. The elevator worked perfectly and made getting luggage to the upper floor easy. We also enjoyed the view from our window overlooking the streets below.
Guests have the option to order breakfast or food delivery for the next day. We didn't take advantage of it ourselves, but what we saw delivered to other guests looked plentiful and delicious.
Overall, this was an excellent place to stay and a perfect home base for exploring Florence. We highly recommend it for its great location, quiet atmosphere, spacious rooms, and welcoming host.

We had a little trouble receiving the instructions to enter the building and the only staff that we saw seemed to one person who was cleaning the rooms.
Duarte
Location is good sprox 15to 20 walk to all main attractions, many places to eat on the way

Overall great location. The staff was very amenable to check in after hours (we were sent a code before arriving). The ventilation could be improved, or they could install mosquito screens so you can leave the window open at night.
Hunter
Cute room, great location. Would happily stay here again.

Very Clean Room. Room remained fresh but also not cold at night. Bed was comfortable. Views from the windows were fantastic. Great view of the Duomo
Martine

Staff are courteous & accommodating. The place is nice & clean & they make the bed daily & give us new fresh towels
Michael
Breakfast was not included in our stay, so we did not have the breakfast. A/C worked fairly well.
Rachael
Good location and nice room
Ethel
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.
Gina
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.
Andrew
We decided to stay away from the main City Centre as Florence is very busy.
The accommodation is about 20 mins walk from the Center.
Entry to the property was by key code.
As the apartments / rooms were on the third floor having a lift (elevator) was very much appreciated.
Florence is mainly small narrow roads between the buildings therefore sound is amplified especially at night by people talking or vehicles and mopeds passing by.
We normally like to have a window open at night but had to close this otherwise this would disturb your sleep.
However the rooms have air conditioning, which is a must particularly when the weather is hot.
Rooms were clean and had everything we needed.
The staff were friendly polite and helpful.
I would recommend staying here and would definitely stay here again when we visit Florence again in the future as it's very good value for money.

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.

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.
Maxwell
We enjoyed our stay here!
Beatriz
The room was big and very comfortable. Both the room and the bathroom were clean. The location is great, close to the main touristic sites but not too close so there is no noise at night or in the morning. Good service too! The breakfast is pretty decent, they have bread, pastries, yogurt, orange juice and fruit. We had to leave early on our last day and they made us breakfast a bit earlier than the usual, so that was really nice. Would definitely stay here again!

Great b&b hotel in a beautiful location up the hill above the villa melzi just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the village but still walkable.
Rooms, service and breakfast all fantastic.

I liked the location and convenience but did not like the mosquitos flying in the room.
Mee Mee
Though the high ceilings were novel, haven for mosquitoes. And there were plenty, no AC, room lacked charm. Uncomfortable stay. High step to bathroom and if you don’t pay attention- accident waiting to happen. Photos misleading.
Jeanette
I must say that I was very disappointed. The staff is nice, but only there in the morning. The property conditions are not what I expected from the fotos. Mold in the shower, super old carpet in common areas, place filled with moskitos (which I know is a problem in Florence, but never had it that bad), and the overall feeling is cold and damp, even on a sunny day. The fotos of the outside show the palace and terrace across the street, not the actual hotel… The price is definitely too high for what this is.
Patricia Anne
Delightful little B&B
Bed was a bit lumpy, and towels were not changed at all during our 7 day stay,
Other than that , it was great, on a quiet street , student vibe neighbourhood

Within walking distance of all major attractions. Located in quiet residential area.
Pat
Very central location. Convenient checkin. Very clean. Our rate included breakfast which would have been better if we’d known there was a microwave in the office. Also didn’t understand until checking out that there was coffee and espresso in the office. The floors go up and down strangely but that added to the charm.
Melanie
We had a very nice stay here. We easily coordinated the checkin. The room was clean and a very nice size. The bed was comfortable. This is an easy walk to the center of town with plenty of nice dining options around and a very good cafe downstairs.
Mark
We were very happy with our first time
at this B B..Room/staff and location suited us perfectly.We would have given it 5 stars except for the smell of sewage sometimes later in the evening coming from the basement area,but as the rooms are on the 3rd floor this wasn’t an issue.We can only imagine how difficult it is to manage these problems when a City has so many tourists …but we had a lovely time

Danielle
Spacious and clean room. Host was very responsive. Good area. AC isn’t the best.
Mark
Nice people and nice location
Sarah
Highly recommended!
Around a 15 minute walk from the station but well worth it for the large room, tea and coffee making facilities and fantastic air conditioning. Very quiet area with a lovely bakery next door for breakfast. The fridge was a nice touch and allowed us to chill our water for the next day.
We had an issue with the shower when we arrived but it was dealt with quickly and efficiently which was fantastic.

The WiFi was out for a couple of days. But I loved how the AC here keeps the unit for cool. Trash was not taken out every day and it was a little far from all the action.

Stayed for one night, bed was comfy.
Room was very spacious, loved that they had the option to login into Netflix while relaxing after dinner.
Hosts were welcoming, heat spots to go see. Where to get the best coffee close to the B&B.

Julie
We loved our corner room. Pleasant views. High ceilings. Super comfortable bed. Tastefully appointed. Excellent shower.
Breakfast was in a basket outside our door when we woke up and a quick walk down the hall to the friendly staff office for coffee and tea.
The building has great old vibes - we liked taking the stairs, but the elevator works well if you prefer. The upstairs hallway’s uneven floor betrays the late addition of running water, which was fun to figure out. We would be happy to return as it was delightful.

A hidden gem in a quite neighborhood. Staff was kind, cheerful and helpful. Make sure to get the breakfast option, the pastries were to die for. So delicious.
About a 20 min walk from the Duomo, wonderful restaurants, cafés and shops.

Everything that I asked for!
Would definitely recommend this hotel. I had 3 nights of very pleasant stay here. In terms of comfort, the bed is so comfortable that I am reluctant to leave the bed in the morning. The room is spacious, with a big window and dining table. It is also clean, no stains or smell at all, though the cups provided in the room could use some careful cleaning, but not a big problem overall. The design is modern, which is exactly what I wanted, after staying in old-fashioned European hotels for a week. The air-conditioner is powerful and quiet.
Regarding the location, it is about a 17-min (flat road) walk from the train station. Beware, you cannot get there by public transport, since there are not many tram and bus lines running within Florence. There are no bars or restaurants directly downstairs, which is perfect because it is quiet at night. Don’t worry though, you will find a wide range of amazing eateries within 10-15 minutes of walking distance.
Restaurants in Florence close rather late at night, like until 11pm, so you will feel safe on the way walking from the train station to the hotel at 10 or 11pm, since there are still plenty of families still dining outside.

Very clean and tidy. Good value too. Would stay again.

Absolutely beautiful! Wonderful hosts. Conveniently located to everything. Knowing that after a day of sightseeing and walking around Florence , that when returning to the room there were always yummy treats waiting on the buffet. Will definitely stay again if I return. Definitely recommend this place.

Family vacation
Excellent stay at a well located bed and breakfast.. Located less than 10 minutes from the train station.. 'never judge a book from its cover'.. The outside of the building looks like an office block but when you actually enter the apartment on the 3rd floor.. Its stunning and clean. Well looked after by Fabian and Julia..
The hotel is located on San Gallo road.. Within few minutes walk to the famous Duomo and not far from water. Breakfast vouchers are issued to eat at either the coffee shop next door or at a restaurant 5 minutes away. Taxis to and from the hotel are readily available via the hotel staff who can book them for their guests. Complimentary muffins and biscuits are available for guests in the foyer.
The rooms were well cleaned daily with all amenities available in the bathrooms... Rooms are well equipped with good air conditioning to help with the summer heat we experienced this week. Shopping in Florence can be done walking with no need to use a taxii. Walking back to the hotel late in the evening is extremely safe. This is definitely one of our most beautiful cities in Europe we had visited during the summer vacation and hope to visit Florence again.

Great place to stay in Florence
Had such a great time staying here in Florence. The location was very close to the cathedral and main areas. The room was really comfortable, clean and we really enjoyed our time here. Would recommend this to anyone looking to visit Florence.

Wonderful place to stay in Florence
The B&B is located in easy walking distance from the Academia / Duomo. Very friendly and helpful staff, nice big and clean room. The only small negative is the AC unit can get a little noisy in Room 5, I think the flap catches and makes a noise. But otherwise it's a great place to stay to explore Florence for a few days.

A glimpse of the Duomo from the room was special
A warm ambience in a very friendly, clean residence not far from Piazza San Marco - the voucher plan for breakfast is smooth and offers a chance to enjoy a local bar with excellent coffee and pastries.

Location excellent for walking to the main areas in town. Staff communicated with us to confirm our arrival time and treated us warmly. Great speedy internet, comfortable room and bathroom. In room tea and coffee prep provided and small fridge.

The hotel was in a handy position for access to many areas of a the city. Despite this it was very quiet at nighttime, which was great. Hotel management was friendly and helpful.

Fabio and Julia were very helpful, kind and informative about the area, restaurants and museums. Fabio was on call most of the time and always did things with a smile. We enjoyed our time there and miss it already.

Great stay in a magical City
We very much enjoyed our stay in a location that was wonderfully close to anything one wants to see. Restaurant suggestions were excellent and the breakfast choice was fun and plentiful.
Kind and interested service gave you confidence that Florence would be the experience you had hoped for.

Great experience.
The couple that manages it is very friendly and may not speak more than their own language very well, but because I was able to learn their language relatively fast it was easy for me to understand most of what they said. They did forget to give us towels one morning, but they did take the time to come back after a quick call and give us the towels right away.

Idealbase from which to explore Florence
Clean, comfortable bed, lovely bathroom, close enough to Station, museums and galleries etc but on a generally quiet road. Breakfast is in a choice of two cafes (one just down in the lift). Hosts very welcoming and speak good English. We went in February and appreciated the heating and extra blanket so we were cosy. (The heating also can do cooling in Summer) Would recommend and would stay again if visiting Florence.

Nice, clean and quiet B&B, conveniently located
The room was clean, well equipped and very quiet. The hosts were not there when I arrived but had sent me in advance all the information I needed to self check-in. When I finally met them the next day, they were friendly and helpful. The room and bathroom were in very good shape. Breakfast was in the small shop next door, served by a very friendly lady. All in all, a very good experience.

Great stay.
The stay was great. Close to everything. A less than 20 minute walk from the duomo and the trains. Front desk was super nice and helpful with all my questions. Would stay again.

Loved this hotel. It was walking distance from everywhere, both city center and the train station. The room was large, water pressure and temp of shower was perfect. WiFi was strong as well. Would definitely stay here again
Mike
The room was clean and comfortable for my wife and I. Scilla, the host, was very nice and told us all the places to visit while we were in town. She even helped schedule a taxi for us for our departure. The B&B is conveniently located...follow Via San Gallo all the way down to all the sights in Florence. We would definitely stay there again.

3 nights in Florence
Great stay although Florence was very crowded. Apartment could not be faulted. Informative and helpful hosts who spoke brilliant Enhlish
Britney
Great value, would definitely recommend
Great little b&b in a great location. We walked there from the train station and found it easily using google maps. They let us check in early and gave some helpful tips on navigating the area. The room was pretty spacious and very clean. The bath towels were huge and I appreciated not having to use 2 at a time to dry off and cover myself. Bathroom is a good size and the water pressure is great. The bed wasn't the most comfortable but we only stayed 3 nights so it wasn't that big a deal to us. There are a few awesome restaurants on the same block and its located only about a 10-15 walk from most everything you'd want to do or see.
