Uncomfortable, not clean, unhelpful stuff, bathroom dangerous and difficult to use, uncomfortable bed, dated, no shelves or bedside cabinets- nowhere to put anything, nothing in the bathroom.

Beautiful, comfortable, clean, and convenient

10.0

We loved the location, short walks to everywhere we wanted to go in Florence. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The community kitchen space was great for making tea and coffee and getting utensils. Very nice and helpful staff.

No complaints. Just be ready to get luggage up one flight of stairs before you reach the elevator.

A beautiful and quiet room in the middle of Florence

10.0

Room was very well decorated and comfortable, windows were excellent at suppressing the noise from the streets below, even during football. Owner was very friendly, communication clear and every detail was described perfectly before arrival. During heatwave it was not difficult to walk to from the tram station and stairs were easy to climb.

Guest review

10.0

The location was perfect and the A/C was very welcomed during our hot week in July. Francesca and Anna were very accommodating and helpful with any questions we had. I loved how thoughtfully they decorated everything with really unique pieces and the breakfast room was very useful for us to eat a few of our own meals.

Phenomenal spot for stay and sightseeing

10.0

The stay was absolutely phenomenal. Great staff that was very accommodating (even with booking taxis), very cool room, soft bed, nice amenities, and centrally located. Cant think of anything else to add. Will be staying here again in future.

Only thing I could possibly say would be the first set of steps leading up to elevator. Lol my wife packs heavy. Other than this, stay was absolutely perfect.
