Disliked: Amenities
The most important aspect of this property is the convenience and location. It is walking distance from the train station, walking distance from the Duomo, walking distance from the Uffizi and essentially all of the sights of Florence. The rooms are safe, clean, and the check in process was convenient. It seems to be a home converted into a hotel, essentially a guest house. The lobby is a living room, there isn't 24 hour front desk service, we had an early train and left our keys with a note on the counter. The bathroom is cramped and oddly shaped but you do get a clean, safe, extremely convenient room with very high ceilings.

Prefect location just steps from the Duomo. Easy access to many restaurants and public transportation. It was a little noisy due to being so close to the Duomo. Lots of night activity late into the evening.

Great location

The location was amazing. We loved being right around the corner from the Duomo. There was a cute little alcove by the window with a table and a couple of chairs. Our second night there was music coming from the square outside so we opened the window and sat in the alcove and enjoyed the music. We arrived early in the day and the staff allowed us to leave our bags at the front desk until check-in time, which was nice. People keep mentioning the a/c but we never saw an a/c control in the room and we never saw anyone at the desk other than when we checked in to ask. We were hot and uncomfortable both nights. The walls were very thin and we heard every sound coming from outside our room. We did know there was no elevator and that we would have to take the stairs but that didn’t make it any easier walking up 4 flights of stairs after being out all day averaging 15,000 steps a day.

Pros: Amazing AC Location is unbeatable Comfortable bed Daily bed making/housekeeping Lots of outlets to charge electronics Room was large-we got the one with the balcony Cons: The noise of neighbors slamming doors and turning keys from 10pm-12am and 6:30-8am every day. Sleep was hard to come by The pillows on the bed were flat as pancakes, but the bed was so soft and that AC, man it was amazing! THE 84 stair climb to our room, a rough go with 50pds of luggage, but it was a great spot!-and so worth it!

The one and only reason to book this location is the location itself. The two rooms we stayed in were beyond outdated, with rust in the shower, very old shower heads, marks of water damages in the bathroom ceiling, a tiny tiny tv screen. Each and every time someone walks into the building the door gets slam shut very loudly. The maintenance level is super low but they do try to keep it clean.

Not a good experience. Luckily we were only there for one night and that was torture enough. It’s only positive is that it is close to everything. Our bathroom wasn’t in our room, we had to walk out of the room and use a key to unlock the bathroom. It was extremely hot, they weren’t ready at check in time. The room was a good size but I was scared I was gonna get bed bugs it just wasn’t a professional and easy place. Also extremely hard to locate. Spend the extra 50-100$ and don’t waste your time here.

Very big, beautiful room and bathroom. Location is very good and convenient and central to everything in Florence. The only downsides were that it was a bit hard to find the entrance when we got there, a lot of stairs (But good exercise! Sadly no elevator). Also, our room was right in front of the front desk which was a convenient location, but at night and during the day was very loud from people coming in. However, overall a good experience!

The staff was nice, checking in was easy.The hallways and staircase leading up to the property smelled like sewage, the actual lobby of the property and the room smelled musty. The mattress was the worst mattress I had ever aid on and the bathroom is very small and outdated. We were actually supposed to stay two nights but we ended up checking out early the next morning, couldn't barre the thought of staying there another night.This property is not worth the price that I payed.

Light sleepers beware

Overall the stay was good. We really enjoyed the private balcony to have a morning coffee overlooking the Basilica (though they never gave us more after the first day). Room was a great size, bathroom was good, small shower but good water pressure. Location was perfect. The stairs up with our luggage sucked but that’s not uncommon in Europe. However, I cannot recommend this place simply because of the lack of soundproofing. We could hear people walking around in their own rooms, opening and closing doors, the door to enter the floor was very loud. We both lost a lot of sleep because of it, earplugs didn't get rid of the sound completely. If you sleep heavily then I’d recommend this place.

Our stay at this bed and breakfast was disappointing. The building is old and lacks an elevator, which was not mentioned in the Expedia listing. We had to climb six flights of stairs, making it extremely difficult to carry our suitcases to the room. The experience felt more like staying in a dormitory than a comfortable accommodation. For the price, it was not worth it—it was not cheap, and the overall experience did not justify the cost. While we love Florence, this particular stay did not meet our expectations. We raised our concerns with Expedia but would not recommend this location.

Amazing location and Clean

The room was very clean and the person at front desk was very nice. He called us a taxi to the airport when we left. The location was perfect. There was no window in our room (we knew that going into it) it wasn’t too hot, it was nice and cool. The bathroom being outside of the room was a little inconvenient but was private to just us and was very clean.

A basic, clean level of accommodation at an inexpensive price - for Florence! No frills, double bed needs upgrading. No elevator so be prepared to climb up 40 narrow steps to your room so travel light if you are older travellers as we were. Quiet. Nice shower and bathroom and a stone’s throw away from main tourist attractions!
