Guest Reviews

• Brian (8/5): Room met our expectations. Was in a great location. The room had a view of the river which was unexpected. - Great location. Room was a good size. Considering the location the room was quiet. Needs a chair(s) in the room.
• Colleen (9/5): Comfortable stay in a great location. - Super location with easy access to transportation and major sights. Although it may be a nice decorative touch, the netting around the bed was a bit annoying (we did manage to toss it up out of the way :D ) In room lighting could be improved, as it was quite dark and there was no way to open or secure back the heavy drapes.
• Martha (9/5): - The location was close to the train station, and a reasonable walk to all of the sights we wanted to see. We were able to shop, eat, sightsee, and get to our train all on foot! We felt safe and comfortable. The accommodations were clean and exactly what we needed. Would stay again!
• Dawn (4/5): The room served its purpose, but I wouldn’t stay again - Great location. A/c works well. Most spacious shower we have had. The bed is not that comfortable. Everything looked better in the pictures. Floors could use a better deep clean, felt dusty. The room was very dark even with all the lights on. There is no shelving in the shower to hold your products. The shower head also has a broken screw and while placing the handheld back in holder the whole thing fell towards me (see pictures) after messaging Marzio about this issue, we never receieved any response. In addition with the shower, one side of the door seal is half off and the other does not close tightly creating a puddle after showering. I did mention this as well as asking for some extra towels so we could dry the floor when finished but no response.
• Sylvia (5/5): - The location was close to the river for walking. The netting hanging down the canopy of the bed made it very awkward to get out of bed on the sides. We took the ribbon that tied the window curtains open and tied the netting back to make it easier. There is a startling noise every time you are running any water or flush the toilet.
• LELIA (7/5): -
• Miriam (9/5): Great location, great view, great room! - Great location, a short walk from all the major sights. The view of the Arno was a nice bonus too. The room was clean and the slippers waiting for us was a nice touch. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a central stay in Florence! The electric water system was new for us. The shower, sink, and toilet, make a grinding sound about every 5 seconds while using them so after a while it was a bit annoying but nothing that would deter us from staying again!
• Marianna (8/5): - Отличное расположение и чистый номер. Кухня очень маленькая и требует доработки.
• Julia Pugatsova (10/5): -
• Francesco (6/5): -
• Nicolas (6/5): -
• Helen (10/5): -
• Ye (10/5): 非常好！ - 房间很干净，然后设施也不错 排扇的时候会有点味道
• Maurice David (9/5): Great space to come back to after seeing the sights. - Very comfortable and well designed room. Very quiet location despite being central. Easy walk to SMN Station and yo tram to airport. Nothing!
• Alexandru-Mihai (8/5): -
• Marco (8/5): - Ottima posizione, vicinissimo al centro storico
• Felix Nicolae (9/5): -
• Christina (9/5): -

• Chihyi (10/5): Lovely place! ❤️ - Spent a wonderful night in the Florence—such a delightful stay. Thank you, Mama Home! Ho trascorso una splendida serata in Florence—un soggiorno davvero piacevole. Grazie!

• Del Bello (10/5): -
• Alessio (1/5): -
• Dore (8/5): Great location, nice staff and good room - Great location, nice staff, nice big rooms, smart tv It had a electric toilet and that made a lot of noise when using the toilet and taps in the bathroom which was a bit annoying
• Masami (8/5): Très bien - L'emplacement était idéal, la pièce spacieuse et propre, et il y avait de nombreuses armoires. Du café Lavazza était disponible dans la chambre. Il n'y avait ni canapé ni fauteuil dans la chambre. J'ai donc été obligée de m'asseoir sur le lit pour regarder la télévision. Des bruits étranges se font entendre lorsqu'on utilise la douche, les toilettes et le lavabo.
• Denise (9/5): Comfortable and quiet - Location was excellent. Room was quiet and bed was very comfortable. Would recommend and happily book on another visit
• Katrin (10/5): - Es ist eine kleine, feine Unterkunft in zentraler Lage. Der Check In verlief sehr unkompliziert und super freundlich. Wir hatten alles, was wir brauchten.
• Gabriel José (9/5): - A hospedagem é muito perto da estação e do Bairro Oltrarno (Santo Spirito). Tem uma ótima localização, perto de todos os principais pontos e a recepcionista foi extremamente gentil. O chuveiro é excelente, bem como o banheiro e a cama emito grande e confortável. Ótimo lugar para ficar! Faz um barulho intermitente quando você utiliza o banheiro (chuveiro, vaso, pia), e o quarto é um pouco escuro.
• Anthony (10/5): Amazing stay, room and staff. Convenient location definitely worth the money. - The staff were very friendly and helpful. We loved our room, the easy check in and the location! Would recommend to anybody to stay here, our favourite hotel we had while in Italy. We loved everything, no negatives.
• christine (9/5): -
• Fabrício (10/5): Ambiente - A estadia foi super tranquila e confortável, a localização era ótima também, fiz tudo na cidade a pé, desde a chegada da estação de trem até os pontos turísticos. Voltaria de novo.
• Andrade (9/5): Confortável e bem localizada. - Localização sensacional! Próximo de todos os pontos turísticos mais famosos de Florença! Cama confortável com lençóis e cobertores limpos e confortáveis! Fica aqui um agradecimento pelo excelente atendimento da Ginevra, nos ajudou com as malas e nos atendeu super bem! Bomba do banheiro faz muito barulho quando utilizamos água.
• Aretha Cathaud Corrêa Goulart (10/5): -
• Maya (9/5): - Loved this hotel, perfect location, big rooms big beds. Would definitely stay here again. Could be a little loud at night between the street noise, the toilet flushing really loud, and other guests. Just bring ear plugs and you’re all good!
• Jeff (4/5): - Location was great Rooms were dark and not well light. Sheets had stains on them
• Rangelova (9/5): -
• Steven (10/5): - Francesca was very kind and attentive. The area is walkable to many shops and restaurants.
• Eric (8/5): - Overall everything was good. Our room didn’t get serviced during our 3 night stay. Unclear if that’s normal or not. They were surprisingly cheap with toilet paper. We were running out and requested more, and they only gave us 1 more. When we were running out again they told us to just go into the kitchen room and grab more but we only found a roll that was half full. The design of the washroom is a bit strange. There’s a full length window in the shower that opens to the main room, and they just blocked it with something. But the location was great and in waking distance of all the major sites.
• François (8/5): très bien, l'hébergement reste néanmoins cher par rapport aux service(mais comme partout à Florence) - la localisation, le confort de la chambre, l'accueil
• loida (10/5): - Amazing team. Francesca is very friendly and lovely
• joségraciano (10/5): - Recepção incrível. Ótima localização. Instalações perfeitas. Recomendo demais e voltarei em breve.
• Tina (10/5): - Beautiful view of the river and people watching.The location is perfect for exploring Florence.
• Renee (9/5): -
• ANTONIA (10/5): -
• serge (9/5): Amazing! - Modern, clean and nice location. Nothing
• Adriana (10/5): - The host was amazing. Great place
• Mary June (10/5): -
• Gabriel (10/5): -
• Moreno (10/5): - Stanze tenute e arredate molto bene, pulite con tutti i servizi funzionanti, le proprietarie molto gentili ci hanno anche dato consigli sul posto visto che non ci eravamo mai stati, rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo per la zona che è molto centrale, consigliatissimo!
• Marietta (9/5): Good accommodation close to station - Comfortable room within easy walking distance of train station.
• Tiffany (10/5): - Beautiful property and rooms
• France (6/5): - This property was very clean and cute. The location was great and within walking distance to all amenities. However, the bathroom had a terrible sewage smell. The shower door and the knob to turn the shower on and off weren’t easy to use. We couldn’t get the water to turn on and when we finally did, the knob fell off. The door would not glide and was misaligned. We notified the representative, she was very understanding and came to inspect and fix the problem-temporarily I supposed. The air conditioning in one room did not work, so we had to use a fan we found in the hallway. The beds weren’t very comfortable either. Overall, this property has potential but a lot of work needs done with the plumbing system, air conditioning system, and better mattresses for their beds.
• Harry (8/5): -
• Tanja (8/5): - Mit Bett, Kleiderstange, Dusche und WC hat dieses Zimmer alles, was man für eine Nacht in Florenz braucht. Aber leider auch nicht viel mehr. Leider war es extrem heiß im Zimmer und die Klimaanlage war nur laut, hat aber nicht gekühlt. Ein Fenster konnte man nicht öffnen, da es dafür draußen zu laut war.
• Guilherme (10/5): - Estivemos no hotel Mama's e fomos incrivelmente bem recepcionados pela Francesca!!! Ela foi muito carinhosa conosco, nos deus muitas dicas e informações sobre a cidade. Saímos de lá felizes e com vontade de retornar ao Mama's. Agradecemos a hospitalidade. Tudo perfeito!
• Adrian (8/5): Great location to visit the city - Location is great Shower head was broken
• Raegan (2/5): Would not recommend - Terrible experience. We booked for two adults and one child , but were only given a double bed. The hotel told us we could not stay in the room as booked, and refused to resolve the issue. The staff were extremely rude and unhelpful, even insisting that a 14-year-old “is not a child.” We were denied a refund and left without accommodation. Completely unprofessional and unacceptable – do not recommend this hotel at all.
• Andrzej (10/5): -
• ELFY (10/5): Amazing stay! - The cosy apartment itself & the big toilet were amazing! We also had a wonderful view of the city from our window.
• Jeff (10/5): - Located in a great area of Florence. Walking distance to many great dining options and to the Santa Maria Novella piazza.
• Kazumi (10/5): - The view from the room is beautiful and the staff is friendly and helpful.
• Erin (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tenzin (6/5): - Short distance from the train station, walkable to the river area.
• Tony (10/5): Best location - Personal service
• Louis (10/5): - Absolutely perfect for us. Highly recommend.
• Zohaib (10/5): - Great location. We loved our time. Very friendly and flexible staff. Shout out to Francesca
• Liam (7/5): Good - Location is great, spacious room, good air conditioning was also a big positive in the summer Florence heat. Can be quite noisy near a main street and bright in mornings with very thin curtains. Communication and check in was a little confusing.
• Yulia (5/5): Passable -
• Florian (10/5): - It was a very pleasant stay. Highly recommend.
• Jovana (10/5): - The host Francesca was amazing! Very welcoming and helpful when I needed questions answered, 10/10 definitely recommend a stay at mamas home!
• Alvaro (10/5): - Francesca at the front desk was excellent got us checked in a bit early the room in excellent condition, bathroom renovated very clean, the bedrooms and beds are excellent we slept very good and the rooms were nice and cool with the extreme hot days in Florence and all of Europe. We will be back to this property with our family. Thank you,
• Crystal (8/5): Very good - - Good value for money. - Good location., 10 mins walk to sunset, 1m walk to bank for sunset. - Very clean. - Good aircon for our stay in summer. - Staff is very helpful and respond quickly via WhatsApp - Plenty of shelves to put stuff Minor things,. - no tissue box - no option to refill water - staff may not be there all the times but doesn't bother us - the lift doesn't work once early in the morning (before 7am) - not enough space to put clothes
• jeanette (10/5): - This property is a close walk to the train to the airport. The property is located on a safe corner that is almost at the foot of a bridge making it easy to visit many areas quickly. The room was large, clean, with modern elements and quiet. The staff was very attentive and helpful with my questions. I was traveling alone to Florence for the first time and this property helped make my stay easy, safe and enjoyable. I would recommend this property to others and stay again myself.
• Imelda (10/5): Exceptional -
• William (10/5): - Great location, wonderful facilities and very helpful staff
• Rhonda (10/5): - Very helpful caring and friendly staff, comfortable room, perfectly siruated for my needs
• David (8/5): - Good location. Great service and communication.
• Maria (6/5): - Cuando prendes el aire acondicionado sale feo olor a agua estancada
• Monica (10/5): - Great room wonderful location.
• Soona (10/5): - I was a solo traveler from New York and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a stay that feels like home—safe, welcoming, and close to all the popular landmarks. Francesca was incredibly friendly from the moment I arrived. She went above and beyond to support me with tips on booking trains, restaurant recommendations, and offering the warmest hospitality throughout my entire visit. The location was super central and within walking distance to everything. The room and bathroom were also spacious and spotlessly clean, which made my stay even more comfortable. I truly felt at ease, and I’ll definitely be returning!
• Gabriela (10/5): - Atención y comunicación increíble con el hotel! Excelente ubicación, limpieza y habitaciones amplias! 100% recomendado
• Kingsley (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kitty (8/5): Great location - Everything we needed, perfect location, lovely staff The room was very hot even with air conditioning. The toilet also smelt a bit when we first entered but cleared.
• Deborah (8/5): - Franchesca was amazing, very warm and inviting. There was very minimal area to hang up clothes and nowhere to open up the suitcases except on the bed. Although the bathroom was huge there was no shelving or anything to put towels or guests toiletries. This could easily be remedied. The room itself was nice.
• Indy (10/5): Fantastic accommodation and great location! - Loved everything about our stay here! The self check-in process was easy to follow. Room was clean and a comfortable size. Reception staff were friendly and helpful with suggestions in the area. Close to lots of great restaurants and a short walk to the Duomo. Would definitely stay here again in the future Nothing
• Orlando (10/5): - Nice locations and great room
• Nikolaos (10/5): Great stay - This small basic hotel is situated in the heart of Florence. Everything is in walking distance, no more than 20 minutes away. The room is simple, yet beautifully decorated and clean. Side view to Arno river which is just opposite. Nice big comfortable bed and a good bathroom. There is a small refrigerator, a coffee machine with excellent Lavaza coffee and a safe. There is no breakfast or food in the hotel. Therefore, if you are looking for something more than a cozy comfortable room, you might not like it. For us it was a great choice and if we ever return to Florece most certainly, we would stay again. The door room.
• Renae (8/5): Very good - Staff barely there if you have any questions but gave good instructions of entering the building.
• Alexnder (10/5): Exceptional - The location of the hotel was perfect walking distance to most places we wanted to see
• Matt (10/5): Exceptional - Clean and comfortable. we were happy with the location. Friendly host Was great having a coffee machine too
• Diego Armando (8/5): - Overall experience was great. The only thing was we didn’t get the room tide up. But we definitely recommend it and would stay there again.
• Apeksha (10/5): Exceptional - Great communication, easy instructions for check in and check out. They even were able to store our luggage pre check in and post checkout. They have a reception desk although not staffed all the time but you can ask them if you have any questions. The room was clean and bathroom was spacious! Loved it, would definitely recommend this place.
• Federica (8/5): - Posizione perfetta sia per spostarsi dalla stazione dei treni o aeroporto, che per esplorare il centro ed entrambe le rive dell'Arno a piedi. Check-in estremamente facile e personale gentilissimo e disponibile, abbiamo molto apprezzato il suggerimento di un posto in cui fare colazione. La camera era spaziosa e il letto e il bagno comodissimi. Uniche pecche: in camera l'unico posto su cui potersi sedere è il letto (niente altre sedie o sgabelli), e le pareti non trattengono bene il rumore che a volte è un po' eccessivo (ospiti in reception, purtroppo a noi è capitato la mattina presto e probabilmente tubature / toilette elettrica dal bagno).
• Bronte (8/5): Very good -
