Such a good location! Check in was easy and simple, we were able to leave our bags when room wasn’t ready. Would definitely recommend as a great place to stay in Florence! Only downside was the shower was either scorching hot or freezing cold, and the last night of our stay we had no hot water :( but other than that was a great stay!! :)

Honestly, our stay was not the best. The photos in the listing were not for the room we got. Our room was not visible in any photos. If it was, we probably wouldn’t have booked it. The room was very poorly maintained (cracked walls and ceiling with paint attempting to cover it), there was a dead bug killed on the wall when we arrived (inevitable, but should be cleaned before guests arrive) and the air was very stale. The air conditioner was necessary but unfortunately made myself and my other guest feel sick. Coughing, sneezing, runny nose.
Very limited (sometimes no) hot water and poor water pressure in the shower.
Location was excellent but unfortunately not somewhere I’d recommend for these reasons.

We really enjoyed our stay because of the excellent location. It was just a one-minute walk from the Fontana del Porcellino and very close to shops, restaurants, and the main attractions in Florence. The location was perfect for exploring the city on foot and making the most of our visit.

Couple things to note, the water took a very long time to get warm and doing laundry was a bit rough with only a washer and no dryer , considering the weather was rainy all week but other than that, it was a good spot!

The apartment was wonderful and very centrally located in the heart of Florence. Just around the corner from Piazza del Signoria and the famous Porcellino was just steps from the front door. A larger market is also there and was quite busy during the day. The street is small and keeps down the noise. We were serenaded nightly from a street performer that set up in the marketplace. The windows did block out most of the noise.

The room was great. The only thing to really know is that the rooms face a very active piazza which can have musical performers late into the night. It was fine for us but we could definitely hear it crystal clear from inside the room with the curtains closed.

Location, location, location.....and service.

My title hints at it...this place is in an amazingly central location. Considering that, it's brilliant value. Other points: room was a bit scruffy, in that the walls could with paint, the wardrobe wasn't in good condition. The shower also wasn't brilliant but it did the job. However, I'd still go back there in a heartbeat. The service was superb, even though there's no staff constantly on site. I managed to lock myself out of my room but the contact WhatsApp answered me within 1 minute, literally. We worked through a solution & I was back in my room in under 5 minutes. Vanessa - thank you! Also, the daily cleaning is excellent, the cleaner very friendly. The bed was very comfortable & the air con was powerful. Back to the location...... My window looked out over the Mercato del Porcellino & I was 30 seconds from Piazza della Signoria. Both were the most important things that I wanted to see. No room safe but that never felt like an issue to me. So, it's not a resort style place but as a solo or couple travelling and sightseeing, I couldn't recommend it more. Oh, also, there was construction happening on the building opposite. I wasn't aware of this until I opened the window in the morning, the sound deadening in the double glazing was excellent.

The location of this property is awesome - incredibly close to Palazzo Vecchio, the Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio, the Arno, and such. Also, right in the middle of a fabulous shopping area and immediately next to a great outdoor market. That was a huge plus for us. Also, the woman we coordinated with was an excellent communicator, which was great. This property has a lot going for it, but just set your expectation that this is a very simple room. Clean and tidy.

That being said, the room is VERY small and more like a dorm (metal bedframes with very firm twin mattresses pushed together), and very sparsely decorated! The smallest shower ever. Unfortunately, I could not get onto the internet on the WiFi with my computer, I would get connected and it said no Internet. Not sure why I had an issue at this hotel, and nowhere else on my trip.

Our stay was amazing. The room was right outside of the square and we got to listen to performers each night from our window once we got home each night. The room was clean, bathroom was clean as well. The walking distance was so perfect, we never had to take a taxi, bikes, or any other means of transportation. Lastly our host was so kind in gifting a bottle of wine and letting us store our luggage after checkout to avoid having to bring them on last minute museum trips. Would absolutely recommend!!!

The staff are so nice and accommodating. They allowed us to extend our checkout by an hour, free of charge. We also brought our small dog, and she was made to feel welcome.

The apartment is situated right in the centre, which is super convenient. It’s spacious, has a washing machine, dishwasher, and a working kitchen.

The shower has good pressure and they provide great shampoo and body wash.

The only cons are that the wastebaskets in the bathroom are small, the shower sometimes didn’t run hot, and the air conditioning only works in one bedroom. If you’re travelling with a family, keep in mind that while there’s two bathrooms, only one has a shower.

The apartment also has a sitting area by the window (outside of the main rooms) which is really peaceful and great for peace and quiet as well. Overall, an amazing stay and we would definitely come back when we’re in Verona again.

Great location - you will be in the center of Florence. Walkable to any destination in Florence. Although it’s not a hotel - it’s B&B. No front desk. Elevator is super tiny and a bit scary but works well. Stairs had lights on only on our last day, atherwise if you return home late, make sure you have flashlight. Mattress and pillows were very comfy, but bed frame was horrible and making all kind of noises with every move. Overall very clean. Location is the best! Also they give coupons for breakfast - useless. This place will value each coupon as about €2.5 and it varies depending on the person at this restaurant. All things considered - bed frame and lights in the building entrance - need to be fixed. Then it will become almost an ideal place.
