Guest Reviews
- Roslyn (9/5): Amazing location and value for a cosy room. Staff exceptional. - So the lady on the desk was just lovely. She went out of her way to help us. She was kind and knowledgeable. Location was amazing and also very quiet. Room serviced daily. No place to put cosmetics etc in bathroom ie shelf or cabinet. Room was very small but we knew this when we booked. Can see why a solo traveller would like this place, feels safe and secure.

- Vanessa (8/5): -

- Tracey (8/5): Very good! - Close proximity to so many places - walkable. It was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. Modern new bathroom. A little dark - room a little small but overall we liked it. We would have liked a place to sit - like a common area that was open around the clock.
- Mohammad (10/5): Exceptional - Location , price , staff
- Amber (9/5): I can’t stress enough how amazing this location is. All of Florence’s major tourist attractions are right at your finger - Amazing location! All the major attractions were within a 15 minute walk and the staff here helpful enough to point out on a map where all the attractions were!
All staff were wonderful and made us feel comfortable and welcomed in Florence. They also made our stay incredibly easy by offering places to drop bags before check-in and after check-out!
The room also comes with lots of complimentary items which are re-stocked daily.

Location
The rooms

None of the 3 rooms we had worked as they should on a week with extreme heat . It made sleeping very hard .
- Cherryl (7/5): Good - Location I did have a hard time looking for this place . Google map will direct you to a restaurant and it’s behind . It should indicate that somewhere
- Saif (10/5): Exceptional -
- Randi (10/5): Great place if you’re looking for location, great value and a comfy bed - The .bed was super comfortable and the ac was great and location was perfect. Staff was wonderful as well!

- Aloysius (10/5): Brilliant, - Simona who was our primary contact was wonderful. She helped us with many good suggestions of where to go and what to see. Her recommendation for a rooftop terrace for breakfast was a highlight of our 24 hour stay. she was extremely welcoming and helpful. she enhanced the whole experience. The location of the accommodation enabled us to see a lot within our short visit, just on foot. We'd definitely stay again and will recommend to any friends visiting Florence.

- Maureen (7/5): Good - Central in town Difficult to locate and once arrived had to call the after hours clerk who came in but advised I was looking for a different place. When shown the receipt and advised I used the contact number provided to call him. Phoned his boss who advised I was indeed expected and was lovely post.
- Sandra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andrew (4/5): Just ok. Really needs an update. - In need of an update - looking and feeling tired
- Iván (9/5): Superb - The service is excellent, the people who work there are very friendly and always look for ways to help you, whether with recommendations for things to see in the area or with kindness and service. Very nice facilities and location. Price-quality ratio is also very good. Super recommended.
- Chin (7/5): Generally good locations. Big size rooms. - Sofa bed
- Melissa (10/5): It hits every check mark you can ask for when traveling. - Amazing location, friendly service, clean rooms, great value. It hits every check mark you can ask for when traveling. Simona was absolutely fantastic and gave us a great rundown of the city. I would definitely stay here again. Nothing
- Elena (7/5): Clean but bad smell - Staff very polite and helpful, location the room was clean but it smelled awful. I don't know if it was an accident the two nights we were there or if it is constantly like this
- Lily (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lewis (10/5): Exceptional - Nice walking distance to everything. Lovely room and very friendly staff!
- Maria (8/5): Very good - Location excellent, clean and comfortable. Exactly what expected. Wifi struggled to connect at times, the shower wasn’t completely warm.
- Francesca (10/5): Exceptional -
- Unnur (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jayni (8/5): good value for great location. -
- Karen (8/5): Very good - The location was the best part. I would stay here again just for that. The rooms are clean, the showers were spacious, and the air conditioning works well. The bed was comfortable. It was not fancy but decent. The rooms were on a separate floor from the check in desk. The floor where the room was located had a door that was supposed to be locked but it never was. Since the building is multi-use (other floors have offices), it felt less secure with the unlocked door. It is not a hotel and does not have 24 hour front desk service. The breakfast is located about a 10 min walk away, so we ate at nearby restaurants on the piazza signoria.
- Cheryl (8/5): Very good -
- Carolyn (9/5): Superb -
- Carolyn (6/5): Very convenient great location. Levrl of service varied! - Great location friendly helpful staff nice rooms! This was our second stay and this time the room coffee service wasn’t set up and neither was there water bottle or a bottle of wine all of which had been provided when we stayed the prior week???
- Anastassiya (9/5): Superb - Great location, very welcoming staff! Walls are very thin, I could not sleep because of that - you can hear almost everything happening next room.
- Zhili (8/5): Very good - The hotel is located in the center of the tourist attractions, making it easy to visit most of Florence's famous attractions. The restaurant downstairs is very delicious.
- Anonymous (9/5): Superb -
- Alan (10/5): Excellent. - Central to sights
Clean
Lovely staff on arrival late
Bottle of wine and drinks in The fridge -

- Jack (7/5): Good -
- Caterina (9/5): The best location!!! Enjoy Firenze - Great location!! Super kind staff , very clean big rooms They need to replace the elevator and maybe renovate the entire the building
- Cindy (10/5): Great central location, good size room and great AC - You can not beat the location of this property if you want to be right in the heart of the tourist attractions. AC worked great as it was extremely hot outside. Nice size room and bathroom. Welcome bottle of wine and daily coffee was a nice surprise. Highly recommend!! A bit softer bed. It was fine for me but my daughter thought it was a bit too hard.
- Brit (10/5): Amazing historic ambience with helpful staff. - The room and the view and the history og the building is amazing. Just can feel the vibe. Location was superb. Carring suitcases. For a light traveller ;).
- Olivia (4/5): Location was convenient but facilities poor. - The location is very close to the centre of Florence tourist areas and shopping. There is a small (teeny tiny) lift to take you upstairs. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and we all woke up with sore backs. The bathroom basin plug did not work. There was mould in the shower. The cleaners took away all our soap so we had to go find more. The security safe was too small to fit anything other than wallets it in.
- Vladimir (1/5): Bad - Almost nothing - except the location Super hot , clima did not work at all. Imagine with 8 years old guy when outside is 36 and instide is 30! Very bad.
- Anthony (8/5): Great location , good stay. - Great location. No breakfast used.
Two to three star standard. Not much
- Nadine (10/5): This was the perfect location and I would definitely stay there again. - Perfect location.
- Steinar (8/5): Very good - Location was perfect. It was like in the heart of the city center. Restaurants, cafes and most tourist spots are near the hotel. The toilet is okay but they could have made a bigger table for the sink so all of our toilettries can be accomodated.
- Maryk (8/5): Very good - Comfortable modern room, location was excellent - very close to Ponte Vecchio bridge It was very noisy in the evening and early morning
- Rebecca (7/5): Good - Staff were helpful and attentive. Location is great. Rooms are super small.
- Michelle (10/5): perfect location - location and staff were amazing
- Zeynep (9/5): Superb -
- Alison (10/5): amazing hotel - very central to the town n/a
- Kate (6/5): Fab central location but take ear plugs! - Great central location. Easy walking distance to most attractions. No lighting outside door, poor signage, impossible to find in the dark - night porter had to come and find us on the first night! Very dated property, extremely awkward lift. Our room was on the road side and although we were on the 2nd floor it was noisy virtually all night each night - people talking loudly, bangs and crashes of bottles and recycling and motorbikes - not conducive to a good night’s sleep.
- Öykü (8/5): Very good -
- Laura (6/5): Pleasant - The location was excellent! We arrived around midnigt. Although we called in advance to let them know we were going around 12, we had to wait outside for half an hour. There is no breakfast although it is called B&B!
- Zeynep (9/5): Superb -
- Lori (9/5): We loved our time in Florence and would easily recommend this place! - Excellent and very convenient location to all attractions. Check in was helpful as she explained the sites and shared sites to see. Also arranged our taxi when departing. Construction wasn’t ideal but understandable.
- Magdalena (8/5): Very good - Fantastic location, really great staff, nice view of the courtyard, very comfortable bed, clean room, warm room with good AC stained bed frame, cheap coffee and tea pods, small room, cleaning service kept reusing the same towels and rearranging them - making us mix them up, wind blowing trough the window, damaged kettle
- Abdullah (9/5): Superb -
- Chris (8/5): Very good -
- Eleanor (9/5): Superb - Good location, clean, comfortable
- Michael (8/5): superb stay on this property even if we just had 1 night stay but still wen enjoy our stay there. Hope to come back agai - near from all the tourist spots its cleanliness
- Emma (7/5): perfectly fine hotel to make the base of your trip in Florence - staff were very friendly and location was perfect Very small rooms
- Priscila (10/5): perfect location - location was perfect! right at the heart of Florence. Don’t let the simple outside fool you. Our room on the inside was nice and cozy, they cleaned and stocked the coffee. and tea bags everyday. We really enjoyed our stay!
- Mattia (5/5): Average, overpriced, but clean and central location - Location was good Facility are average, probably at par with an average 3 stars hotel. Starecase very dated.
Room was nothing like in the pictures. But at least it was clean
- Ericka (8/5): Good place to stay in Florence : comfortable, near from everything and great staff! - The place has an excellent location, easy to find, and it’s quiet, even if you’re two steps away from la Piazza della Signoria, you can’t hear anything from the outside. The room is confortable and everything is clean. The staff is friendly and helpful, always with a smile. Thanks Pietro for everything! The accommodations in general needs a “refresh”, but you have all you need to be confortable and you can feel at home easily.
- Camilla (9/5): Superb -
- Xin (10/5): Exceptional - Great staff, very good location and very clean.
- Angelo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Seyedali (8/5): Very good -
- Maria (8/5): Very good - The room was spotless. The staff was very kind and helpful. Bed and pillows were super comfortable, way better than expected and the location was just excellent. I also highly appreciated the tea and coffee that was provided in the room. The rooms need soundproofing. We could hear every single word from people checking in, people talking on the phone as if they were next to us. It was quite annoying especially while we were trying to sleep.
- Assel (9/5): Superb -
- Anne (9/5): Superb -
- Talitha (9/5): Superb -
- Belinda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Atika (10/5): Exceptional -
- Holley (8/5): This was a find. I definitely would stay here again. - The location is on a quiet little square just steps from the Palazzo Vecccio. There is a LIFT! The room was small—OK with us, but if you have lots of luggage, or expect to sit and rest in your room, you’ll be disappointed.
- Li (7/5): it is just ok - location condition of the property is ok , not great .
- Abigail (9/5): Superb - The room size, location, staff and check in were all great! I would recommend anyone coming to Florence to stay here. Only down side depending where your room is, is the Wifi connection is not very strong and goes in and out.
- Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional - Staff was great and location super convenient
