The location was very convenient for us. It wasn't in the center of Florence but it was within walking distance to all of the tourist sights and destinations and very close to the train station! The host was very friendly and welcoming. The room was very, very clean and they restocked the toiletries every day. We looked forward to coming back to the clean room each night. Great value for the money paid.

Ines United States of America

Tiziana is a wonderful host, always smiling and giving suggestions about what to see in Florence. The rooms were clean and breakfast was very good!

Diego Italy

The property is located in the neighborhood of Porta Al Prato, which runs along the River Arno and within walking distance of all the picturesque bridges, one of the qualities for which Florence is world-renowned. The property is also within walking distance of Santa Maria Novella train station, Piazza della Repubblica and not terribly far from Belvedere. My stay in Florence was regrettably short and I wish I had stayed longer. The room was spacious and clean; we opted for the one with the private bathroom which was also clean. The staff was friendly and allowed us to keep our luggage there after checking out so that we could take a day trip to San Gimignano!

Adam United States of America

Breakfast was excellent, very delicious. The staff was exceptional, very kind people.

Karin Ecuador

While the location is not directly near the center it is within walking distance. It is also extremely close to the tram and train station. The beds were super comfortable and the staff was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.

Rachelle Qatar

The room was very nice and big!! Beautiful view out our widows, terra cotta roof tiles and city gardens! The staff, especially the gals that served breakfast, were charming and very sweet!!

Misugi United States of America

Oh heavens,EVERYTHING! Location, quiet, clean, comfortable, access to everything, and most of all, a wonderful, pleasant, and helpful staff! Great breakfast in the morning, and pleasant deck for the sunset... couldn’t ask for a better value, as well. No reason to look any farther!

Richard United States of America

Free breakfast, nice helpful staff, good location.

Adam United States of America

Wonderful friendly staff who took extra care of us with our infant. Great experience!

Naveen United States of America

Easy to find location. Great staff and very thoughtful in providing breakfast for guest out of their own will. Rooms were big and clean. Convenient restaurant, supermarket and laundry facilities just a few walking distance from the property. Would recommend to anyone if you wanted to stay in a quieter area of Florence but still walking distance to main attractions. Definitely would come back!
