The hosts are really welcoming and helpful despite language barriers. The room was very large and comfortable if a little basic. It's a 15 minute walk into town so well placed but our room was on the main road so was a bit noisy. I was surprised to have to pay an additional tax on top of the booking when we arrived but other than that had a lovely stay. It felt more like an air BnB than a hotel but no worse for it. Would have no issue to book again.

Quaint and Friendly Stay in Florence

The hostess at this hotel was the best! She was so helpful and kind. The room was quaint and had a wood ceiling and wood beam, which gave it lots of character. We had a private bathroom that was down 5 steps which was a little tricky to use. It was an older bathroom and had a few small issues. The hotel was about 5-10 minute walk from the train station which made it really convenient for dropping off our luggage before exploring Florence. Our hostess provided a delicious breakfast for us.

We loved the staff and the breakfast. The room was nice and clean. The only drawback that we could hear the noise coming from the corridor, intercome phone rings included. The lady later turned it off. Also, the windows were hard to operate if you wanted them open.

Good hotel

At first we were a bit apprehensive as we thought we’d booked a hotel and it looked like someone’s house. Tentatively I rang the door and someone appeared from the street a couple of minutes later to check us in. It was indeed 2 apartments on the top floor converted into a bed and breakfast. There was a lift to take us up. The room was basic but clean and functional. A small breakfast was available in the morning. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Situated 10 min walk from station and a further 10 to the start of the centre of Florence, it was relatively handy for a base. A small bus at €1.50 into town was a good option to start then walk back

Overall this property was fine and worked for what we needed. The self check in process was very smooth and very appreciated as we arrived much later in the evening. At first glance in the dark and dim light, the room was fine. But there was a very horrible stench coming from the bathroom. Since I'm pregnant I'm very sensitive to smells but even my husband thought it was quite awful. It lasted the whole evening and was still there when we left. I did note this in my feedback regarding the check in process and while we were out the next day they made up the bed and I think possibly dealt with the smell. It wasn't all gone but it was much more bearable. In the daylight I did notice what I had thought the night before was just vintage chips in the wall, was actually dirt on the walls, more so what appears to be blood and other such substances. We noticed some mosquitos in our room so I am assuming it was other people killing them on the walls. The breakfast provided in the morning was a great treat and much appreciated. The host was there helping make cappuccinos and was very lovely. There was yogurt, pastries, fruit, fruit juices, and a coffee machine. Overall I was happy with the location and space, just wish the bathroom and cleanliness wasn't what it was because it did dampen the experience.
