Nice Hotel Near the Main Train Station

The hotel is just a 10-minute walk from the Main station. We had a nice stay in this hotel because the owner and Ms. Sylvia were very accomodating and supportive of our plans. Sylvia even recommened two nice restaurants near the place. The steak there are superb! We had nice breakfast. Our stay is comfortable because our room is clean.

Don't judge the book by its cover

A very short distance from the train station (Firenze SMN). The building of the B&B wasn't look nice but don't judge based on the building, the room was extremely perfect! Very nice very comfortable and the bathroom was excellent. I can say it is even much better than some of the hotels!! Highly recommended and I would go back to this place again if it happens for me to visit florence again. Thanks for giving us the pleasant stay.

Good B&B close to centre and station

The B&B was perfect for what we needed, the price was cheap in comparison to other Florence hotels. The breakfast was a bit basic but it filled us up and the staff were very helpful and accommodating. When we were there, there was a very unhappy lady who was complaining because she wasn't able to get into the property for a long time when she arrived. On our booking it clearly said that check in was before 6pm and you had to contact the B&B directly if you were going to be late. I think she had missed this - I am mentioning this because I imagine she will leave a very negative review and I don't believe that this is a fair impression of the hotel. It only took us around 10 minutes to walk to the very centre of Florence and the walk back in the evening felt safe and it was lit the whole way back.

room was clean, bathroom was tiny. the bathroom had a bad smell on our last day, and there was nearly any water coming out of the shower, but after a while flowing water came back. hotel was about 15 minutes walk from the terminal, for us that is quite far walk dragging our heavy bags. the owner was helpful in giving us directions. neighborhood is safe to walk at night.

It was to locate place. Two three such b&b at this location. Supply in the room and cleanliness need to be maintained. Breakfast is limited in varir ety and quantity. I would rather spend money in regular hotel. I was under impression as this is being a regular hotel.

10 minutes' walk to train station

Very convenient location to Florence train station if you're catching a train. The room is clean and tidy, although a bit small. The only con is the squeaky bed and it's too soft.

Posizione discreta, servizi nulli.

Un affittacamere, le chiavi le trovi in una busta all'ingresso, e non si hanno contatti con il personale (se non telefonici). Le camere sono pulite e arredate in modo originale. Nella mia stanza il lavandino del bagno (minuscolo) era completamente tappato, ho telefonato per chiedere di sistemarlo, ma nonostante le rassicurazioni nessuno è intervenuto. La colazione viene consegnata in camera, non essendoci un'area comune attrezzata. L'abbiamo richiesta per le 7.30, ci è stata portata alle 8.20, nonostante diverse telefonate di sollecito. Ci avevano assicurato un servizio di garage con ritiro della vettura sotto il B&B, ma una volta arrivati, scusandosi, ci hanno detto che non era disponibile.

Accueil sympathique à notre arrivée vers 18h. Le responsable nous a fourni un plan de la ville et nous a indiqué le temps et la route à prendre pour accéder aux différents monuments à pied. Chambre très petite mais propre et joliment décorée. Nous logions au 3ème étage de l'immeuble, la réception et la salle de petit déjeuner étant au 1er. Accès aux différents étages et porte d'entrée par digicode. Heure de petit déjeuner un peu tardive, pas avant 8h30. Le café n'est pas en libre service, il faut demander pour être servi. Possibilité de laisser ses bagages dans l'hôtel pour la journée, même en ayant rendu la chambre. Le hic : des travaux en bas de la rue et donc beaucoup de bruit, de poussière et un accès un peu plus difficile.
