Disliked: Amenities
The room was advertised as a bed & breakfast, there was no breakfast offered. It was also advertised as a bathroom/bidet included IN the room. The bathroom was shared. There was no WiFi even when the weather was sunny and clear. A handful of mosquitos in the room too. I have about 8 bug bites from the five nights I stayed there.

Overall ok, theres no reception or lobby or anything. We had to use WhatsApp to contact the owner(?) To let us into the apartment building. The bathroom was dirty, but they let us move to another room immediately. Doors work with a code rather than a key so they just texted us to move to a new room No room service, no fresh towels etc during our stay. We probably could have requested them. Ok location, tram T2 goes towards city center, about a 10 min walk.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The check in was remotely done, quick and smooth but the room provided was terrible. The double bed is made using two single beds, not comfortable at all. The room was full of mosquitos and was a graveyard of dead flies and mosquites all around the walls. Toilet was clean but was small and getting into and out of the shower is unsafe as it is very easily slippable

The rooms were comfortable, the location is great, and the staff was super nice and responsive. Although the check-in process and communication is all on-line, they always replied immediately to all my messages and requests. The only downside was the shower of the shared bathroom, which was a bit unsteady. But overall, I had good experience!

a room from hell

My stay in Florence from August 7th to 9th was a nightmare due to serious security and safety issues. The most terrifying event was an unauthorized entry into our room around 4:00 PM while we were sleeping. The management called it a "mistake," but it left us feeling deeply insecure for the rest of our vacation. Beyond the security breach, the room was in a state of severe disrepair. The shower head was loose and fell on my foot, the shower curtain fixture was broken, and the toilet leaked from its base after every flush. Cleanliness was also a major concern, with spiderwebs hanging from the ceiling and visible residue from dead flies on the walls. I reported all these problems and requested a refund, but the owner was completely indifferent. This accommodation is not recommended to anyone seeking a safe, clean, and well-maintained place to stay, as it demonstrated a complete disregard for customer satisfaction and safety.

The bathroom was a little smelly when you flushed the toilet, no matter the contents inside. The entrance is a little confusing, the light is automatic so you have to switch it on when you’re entering. The overall room was nice, the bed was very comfortable, a little creaky. Overall nice stay. Had a problem with my booking and the owner was very lenient and helped me out over the phone. There is no lobby or staff, just an apartment style entrance.
