The breakfast was simple and tasteful it was prepared every day to our liking! Rooms were clean, the place is very well designed in the heart of Florence and a bit farther than the hustle and bustle of tourists. A short walk of 10-15 min from every major attraction. The area is calm and full of nice restaurants! The owner has great communication and always ready to help!

Amazing stay to kick off our honeymoon! We loved the breakfast and how easy it was to access the location. The city centre is around a 10-15-minute walk away and easy to get to everything from here. Beds & pillows SO comfy and blanket was cozy too. We will stay here again next time we are in florence

Room was very clean and the breakfast was excellent. Location was also very convenient. Host was very helpful and provided very good suggestions about the area. Only negatives were there was no daily room cleaning or fresh towels provided. The rooms and entire facility is a bit noisy (everything is a hard surface that does not absorb sound). Could easily hear anytime another door outside our room opened/closed and also hear others talking.

We loved our time at The Wheels, and would highly recommend anyone visiting Florence to stay here. The entire space is beautifully designed and the location is perfect. It’s close to great restaurants, coffee shops, and shopping, but just far enough away that it is quiet at night. Francesco was extremely hospitable and went above and beyond with great recommendations for both Florence and our upcoming travels. The breakfast was wonderful and the perfect way to start each day!

Amazing accommodations! The space is small but beautifully maintained, very clean, and thoughtfully decorated. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the shower was nice and hot which was much appreciated following long days exploring Florence. They also provide a lovely complimentary coffee bar with little snacks and a charming sitting area for guests to relax and enjoy. A nice breakfast selection is available as well for those interested. This B&B is truly charming and perfectly located near the city center of one of the most beautiful and romantic cities in the world. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Florence!

Highly highly recommend. The hotel is small and intimate in a residential area away from the touristy chaos. I couldn't find the check in instructions so sent a message via expedia and the owner Francesco called me within minutes with instructions. Very soft pillows, great hair dryer, tea, espresso and snacks provided 24/7. Anddd, aside from a cute breakfast pastry buffet, Francesco cooks each guest pre-selected breakfast meals (I got the veggie omelet both mornings), and is present to answer any questions re travel or suggested restaurants, bars, etc. Will definitely stay again when visiting Florence.

We had a great stay at TheWheels Florence! The room and facilities overall are nice and fresh, and the location is great (10min walk to Duomo). Really price worthy! Only small minus was the location on the first floor, which otherwise didn't disturb at all but as the window in our room was towards the street, in the night when people are walking past it might wake you up.

Francesco was amazing, I wanted to be his best friend as soon as I met him. He was very responsive and accommodating when I had questions on public transportation and needed a taxi when I left. Traveling alone as a female I would definitely recommend this place, it was so clean, easy to get into and very walkable. Extremely easy to get to from the airport (about a 6 minute walk from the train). All in all I would give it a 10/10 and hope I can visit again in the future :).

Our stay at this bed and breakfast was nothing short of perfect. The location couldn't have been better — right in the heart of Florence, within walking distance to everything we wanted to see and do. The rooms were spotless and incredibly comfortable, and the entire place was kept to the highest standard of cleanliness. What really stood out, though, was the exceptional customer service. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and provided amazing recommendations for sightseeing and local restaurants — all of which were spot on. This B&B truly made our Florence experience unforgettable. We highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city and would absolutely stay here again.

Francesco was a wonderful host. He kept us well informed and responded promptly when I had questions. The room was very clean and quiet and the bed was comfy. For breakfast, we had a tasty ham and cheese omlet one day and a bagel with salmon and avocado another day. The self serve coffee maker was a nice touch for an early morning cup of cappuccino. Everything was close and within walking distance even to the train station. We had a wonderful stay and recommend this B&B. Thank you Francesco for your warm hospitality and making us feel at home.

Disappointing stay at TheWheelsFlorence. Unfortunately, we didn't have a good experience at this bed and breakfast. There was no one to greet us, no innkeeper on site, and no personal attention. Any request had to be sent through WhatsApp, and even then, it wasn't handle until the next day. We arrived to a room full of mosquitos-we killed around 25 on the first night and still got bitten. They don't offer free daily cleaning, which is fine, but at the very least the bathroom trash should be emptied. Sleeping was also difficult because the air conditioner was very loud. And like many places we encountered, there was no cable TV or international channels, only local ones. the only positives were the walkable distance to the train station and to several tour meeting points. Other than that, I would not recommend this B&B.
