The staff (Ferdinand and John) and service were the best we've encountered. The location was walkable to the main attractions of Florence. Overall, a very pleasant stay
It’s an average hotel. The breakfast was good. The only thing I didn’t like was the bedding — there were no proper duvet covers, just a thin sheet between you and the duvet, which felt a bit uncomfortable. I wish they would use proper covers for the duvets.
This hotel was amazing. I am traveling solo and location was perfect. Breakfast was delicious and the Staff was so helpful. Specially Antonella. Looking forward to back.
The hotel was amazing! The staff was so nice and the room was very comfortable and spacious, also the bathroom was spacious and clean. The breakfast was delicious too.
Pros are it's a good price for the area, and a nice area, with grest reception staff.
The cleaning was just really bad. The inside of the fridge was gross and needed cleaning badly, the mug was never cleaned the whole time I was there, the toothbrush holder was really dirty, and they have a problem with mosquitoes in the room even with the windows closed. They just need to up their game with the cleaning and then this would be perfect for the price.
It was immaculately clean and the shower water pressure was amazing! Perfect for sightseeing - the neighbor hood was accessible to Florence and quiet and safe at night.
I loved our stay in the hotel, me and my daughter and husband stayed 2 nights. Everyone was really friendly especially Antonella she was amazing and one of the other ladies in the reception that helped us with some tourist attraction to visit!
The rooms was great, very clean. The breakfast was amazing!
Great hotel, with a good breakfast selection
Staff were very friendly and happy to help.
Lack of taxi availability but they tried their best to call taxis
Alexandro was fantastic and always ready to help.
Good spacious double room at back, friendly staff and service, clean comfortable room, charm. 20-minute walk to centre manageable, quiet, slight rumble of trains near but not disturbing. We very much enjoyed our stay and Firenze amazing. Thank you
This hotel is a great place to stay in Florence, the room was just the right size for 2 people and super clean. The gentleman on reception was lovely and very accommodating. Breakfast in the morning was your standard continental breakfast, but tasty all the same. The hotel is a little walk away from the city centre - around 20 min walk but this didn’t bother us at all the streets felt very safe, even at nighttime. I would recommend staying here to any friends or family visiting Florence.
All of the staff was helpful, kind and engaging. Shonna (not sure I spelled her name correctly) was so kind and accommodating with my dietary needs for breakfast. She had a great sense of humor and a smile every morning. We had a great time and would definitely come back when we’re in Florence again!

Liked: Staff & service
The staff and owner were friendly.
The rooms floor was weird, and no curtains at the window.
Breakfast was basic but good.
They said no Amex allowed and had to pay with debit which wasn’t great.
It’s a small hotel, family-operated and owned who were all magnificent. We checked in really late and who I believe was the head of the family was very helpful and even saved me money on parking. The room was small, but very cozy and clean. It also had all the major amenities that most been g hotel have. We missed breakfast time the following, but the lady still let us have a small breakfast and a few capuchinos.

Great little bar and bar area with an amazing bar tender who will give a master class on Italian alcohol. Breakfast was good. Staff was all very friendly.
Street parking in the blue lines is the only parking, which we found a spot a few blocks down. Not a lot of retail or restaurants in the immediate area, which we were fine with as we had a car. Quiet at night. A good night of sleep.

Lovely little hotel in a quiet area of Firenze.
Supermarket few metres away.
Bus stop nearby and few restaurants around.
Breakfast is not much in variety but enough to get by and start your day.
Nice bed, pillows and storage facility.
If you want a taxi, best thing to do is ask the reception.
And remember reception closes at 8pm.
Mark was excellent always trying to help as much as possible and also the lady receptionist (sorry I forgot to ask her name)
Overall positive hotel.
Not great.
Two room bookings were made, both costing exactly the same but one was much bigger than the other which meant a very small double bed was all that we had to sleep in. This wasn’t helped with the room having the heating on and not able to be we turned off, the shrug and a pointed finger at the weather was the only communication from a staff member. We opened a window but the noise from the railway line next to the hotel meant for a restless night.
The bathroom light also didn’t work, the kettle was not able to be plugged in on the desk (I had to use the bathroom plug and rest the kettle on the sink!)
The breakfast was ok, fresh fruit yogurt and typical continental cold meat and cheese but no cooked eggs etc. The coffee wasn’t great either.
The staff, even though not able or willing to help with room problems, were polite and apologetic.
