Guest Reviews

• Kerri (10/5): - Such a wonderful stay. Great location, warm greeting with clear explanations of everything and house was spotless. The view was breathtaking!
• Javier Andrés (10/5): - Todo perfecto. Alfonso ha sido muy amable y muy atento en todo lo que hemos necesitado. A solo cuatro paradas de la zona centro y con el tranvía muy cercano. 100% recomendable.
• Taylor (2/5): - I do NOT recommend for tourist. We had 2 horrible nights. This is a guest house so shared amenities and such but with the other guest it was hard to relax with people coming and going throughout the night. There were people the first night making food and smashing dishes in the kitchen until midnight and while we respect the culture, we rise early and did not sleep well or at all. The second night someone was slamming and banging on the door and buzzer to be let in and yelling for quite some time. When we tried to call the host, he only said some one missed check in and nothing was really done about it! After that experience we did not feel safe to stay there any more, even if it was another guest trying to check in, having someone try to kick the door down during the night was enough that we had to leave. We left two nights into our four night booking.The manager Alfonzo refused to refund us our money for the last two nights and called us liars when we explained what happened. I have not left a bad review for a service before but this was a terrible experience.
• Verified traveler (10/5): また泊まりたい！ - 駅からT2トラムで10分、そこから徒歩5分。住宅地の一角で、スーパーも近く便利。建物は古いと思いますが手入れが行き届いていて、素敵なインテリア、さらに共有のキッチンとテラスがあります。エレベーターはありません。 ご主人は英語がきちんと話せる大変感じの良い方。ゆっくり、快適に過ごせました。
• Florence (8/5): - Mario est très agréable. Bus a 150 m et tram a 300 m Cuisine bien équipée et terrasse agreable
• Safeer (10/5): - Right in the core with a nice view
• Daniel (8/5): - Good for the price, part of an old building. Very helpful staff at all time. Shopping close. Tram to downtown, airport, train and bus stations within 10 minutes walking distance. Many thanks for wonderful staff service.
• ernesto (10/5): - Todo bien.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The bedroom, shared bathrooms and kitchen were clean. Just no aircon in the bedroom, but a fan was provided.
• Wendy (6/5): Classic guest house - Building is great and staff very friendly but no air conditioning and no screens on windows meant there was no air flow
• Amélie (8/5): OK - Accueil très agréable et disponibilité de l’hôte. Logement bien situé pour visiter Florence, avec les transports (bus et/ou tram). Cuisine et terrasse partagées appréciables. Cependant, chambre donnant sur rue très bruyante. Literie moyenne.
• Kofi (10/5): - Dominico was very welcoming and helped me with my stay at the guesthouse, it was very clean and I had no problems whatsoever.
• Ronke (10/5): - A great place to stay when visiting Florence. Conveniently located on bus and tram lines but also walkable into the historical centre (20-30 minutes walk, 10-15 min bus/tram). Room with own bathroom and terrace was spacious and as advertised. Also a decent-sized kitchen available for use by all, including fridge and two hobs. Basics such as olive oil, sugar and salt all on hand. There’s also a coffee machine with pods (one per person per day) and kettle. Seating inside and on terrace. Arrived with Flixbus at Villa Constanza and able to get tram and then bus which stops virtually outside (about 30-40 min journey). A little noisy as on a main road but would definitely recommend and would stay here again if visiting Florence.
• Corinna (10/5): - Thank you for everything :-)
• Paul (10/5): - The property was very nice and cosy. They had a full kitchen with an electric stove, dishwasher, and refrigerator. The only downside was the lack of any type of A/C. They had a fan but being one of the hottest days in Italy, (104°f) the fan was not doing much.
• Ivan (8/5): Comfortable place! - Nice place, very friendly staff, would stay again!
• Adriana (10/5): Excelente - Excelente ubicación, con restaurante y tranvía muy cerca. Mario nos ha recibido muy bien, había café y una terraza donde sentarse con tranquilidad, todo muy limpio, los baños aunque son compartidos estaban impecables. Nos tocó una habitación con vista a la calle, y aún así no se escuchó mucho el ruido. Recomendado si lo que necesitas es pasar una noche en Florencia.
• Maedeh (4/5): - The place was really noisy and we couldn’t sleep over nights! Any person opening the room or washroom you can hear! We heard the dog bark as well! I was not sure if the place was pet friendly or not! We will not come back for sure!
• Stefano (10/5): - Staff cortese e disponibile, struttura curata e aree comuni ben allestite.
• Clara (8/5): A nice place close to the airport - Kitchen is bad equipped and room is kinda basic but cute. Overall is a nice place for one night and can be convenient especially if you need to be close to the airport 👌
• Douwe (10/5): - Zeer vriendelijke host, sprak keurig Engels en vertelde meteen wat dingen over de stad. We konden gratis fietsen lenen, wat 25 minutjes lopen naar het centrum een stuk makkelijker maakte. Alles was erg schoon en netjes verzorgd.
• Alla (10/5): - It was wonderful time for me and my son. The room was not big but cosy. The hotel is placed near T2 tram line ( between the airport and railway station), very comfortable to reach. Well organized kitchen with the possibility to eat on wonderful terrace. We are very grateful to Mario and Dominico for this beautiful stay.
• Ashley (10/5): - We had a lovely stay, the hotel is located in a nice area with plenty food shops around. It’s just off the tram which takes you into the city centre very quickly. Hosts were very helpful and offered recommendations as well! Would stay again!
• Sebastian (8/5): Bon service - Très bien, très bon service
• sophie (10/5): - Très bien
• Virginia (10/5): Muy Recomendable - Atención excelente A dos cuadras del metro Muy recomendable
• Henning (8/5): Hyggelig og rimelig hotel - Veldig koselig hotell, italiensk atmosfære, tilgang til kjøkken og koselig hage, nyoppussede bad, store rom. Med buss 17 bare 8 minutter til sentrum. God service.
• Jose (6/5): - Me gustó el concepto y el lugar, sin embargo me parece excesivo el impuesto y el cargo extra por hacer check in posterior a la hora. El tener que compartir baño no siempre es una buena experiencia
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent staff, great location. Clean and comfortable room. There was some traffic noise but it did quiet down for night so we got good night sleep.
• Aroa (10/5): - El personal que trabaja muy amable y simpático. Y la tranquilidad y comodidad del alojamiento estado muy agusto y contenta.
• florence (8/5): - Accueil chaleureux
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Zona tranquilla e comoda. Personale gentile. Stanze pulite, ma un po' rumorose. Letto non comodo
• Verified traveler (8/5): - La posizione è ottima e ben collegata. Il giardino interno è molto piacevole e l'uso della cucina è utile e pratico. La stanza era pulita ma davvero estremamente essenziale, troppo poche le asciugamani (due teli doccia in tuto per due ospiti, senza asciugamani più piccoli né tappetino per quando si esce dalla doccia). Check-in e check-out semplici e veloci con personale accogliente.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - 各方面都做得很好，附近有大型超市，可煮食。
• Melanie H. (2/5): Sehr laut, keine Klimaanlage und unfreundlicher Hausherr - Wir sind am Vormittag angekommen, der Vermieter jagte uns sofort aus dem Haus mit den Worten, es werde gerade geputzt und check in sei ab drei. Meine Tochter durfte nicht mal auf Toilette. Dass der Check in aber nur bis 20 Uhr geht und danach extra Gebühren erhoben werden, sagte er natürlich nicht. Das Zimmer war äußerst zweckmäßig mit Stockbett. Im Zimmer hatte es 28 Grad, Klimaanlage gibt es nicht und das Fenster kann man wegen der lauten Straße nicht öffnen. Aber 2 Uhr nachts kann man schlafen, vorausgesetzt es duscht niemand mehr. Ich hatte zwei Nächte gebucht, bin aber nur eine geblieben.
• Ece Nur (10/5): Great stay - The guest house was in a nice, quiet area which is rare for Florance. The owner is a great guy. He is incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was way too good for its price. I would definitely reccomend this place to couples and families.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice room close to the city with charme and super nice personal.
• António (10/5): - Perfect location, 5 min from the tram station. The host was perfect and helpful demonstrating good knowledge of the city and great tips!!
• Maria (10/5): Excelente opción. - Excelente lugar, un poco retirado del centro, pero muy bien comunicado. Es muy práctico con una cocina compartida, el lugar impecable. Los anfitriones muy amables.
• Vincent (8/5): Beau mais trop bruyant - L'établissement est plutôt confortable et bien acceuillant, il dispose d'une cuisine que les hôtes peuvent utiliser ainsi que d'une agréable terasse. Les toilettes/ salle de bain sont communes, 1 salles d'eau pour deux chambres environ. L'établissement est très propre et le personnel accueillant. Les transports sont proches. L'établissement ne dispose pas d'un parking( stationnement payant dans toute la zone) mais propose de laisser sa voiture dans un garage proche au tarif de 15€ par nuit. Gros point négatif le quartier est assez bruyant, l'établissement étant situé à un carrefour très fréquenté de jour comme de nuit il nous a fallu choisir entre le bruit important de la rue et la fraîcheur extérieur, et la tranquillité mais la chaleur du mois de juin. L'établissement ne propose pas de petit déjeuner.
• lauren (10/5): adorable house - awesome location. 20/30 min walk from train station, bikes on property was awesome bonus. staff are friendly and professional. place is extremely clean. fan and tv in room shared bathroom area always clean. stairs only in the home, staff assisted with luggage which was appreciated. approx 40 min walk to downtown area
• Bruno (10/5): - Mário give to us all the informations about everything.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The place was very useful, between airport and the central of Firenze by tramway. Staffs are also kind!
• jean-baptiste (10/5): Confortable propre et très bien située - Chambre d'hôtes spacieuse et bien aménagée. Propre et confortable.Hôte très agréable et disponible pour le moindre soucis. Idéalement placée a 10minutes de tramway du centre touristique de Florence et idem de l Aéroport...hyper pratique. Seul bémol énormément de passage dans la rue, on entend beaucoup la circulation.
• Jorge (8/5): - Aseo excelente, buena atencion
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Grandissima gentilezza e disponibilità dei gestori.
• Verified traveler (10/5): The place to stay in Florence - Domenico and Mario are great guest house hosts! Highly suggest to stay by them, very professional and helpful in all ways.
• Kurt (10/5): - Close to Venice and train station. Tram and bus stop at the end of the block.
• Verified traveler (6/5): not convenient to stay - no air condition, kitchen closed early,charge late arrive fee,private bathroom not convenient.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - we booked the hotel for the kids because they arrived after 11 PM on their flight from London. When they got there the Hotelier said they did not confirm and they were late for check in so their room was given away. Not sure if we will get our money back since it is oversees. They never got to see the room they were treated poorly
• Haleigh (10/5): Would stay again - Mario was wonderful and had so many helpful recommendations to give us when checking in. The room was bigger and better than expected. The only complaint we have is that there was no A/C but we knew that going into. There is also a lot of traffic outside at night, so keeping the window open to cool the room isn’t such a great idea if you’re a light sleeper.
• Gaurav (8/5): Nice guest house - Stay was comfortable, it was not close to the city attractions though.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - We really lucked in when we found L'Aranceto! It's a wonderful guest house in a fabulous location - only 30 minute walk to historic Florence. Nestled among some great restaurants, cafes and right by a grocery store. Domenico and Mario were wonderful hosts - extremely helpful with lots of practical information about the city. Would definitely stay there again!!
• Capepamela (8/5): Florence for a family - We booked as a couple and a teen son, and thought correspondence had confirmed our change in plans and that our 20s daughter would also join us. Upon arrival we were confused to have only beds for 3, but agreed on a price to add a fourth bed. At checkout, I didn’t go down and later found out my husband was charged more than agreed upon for the extra person. The stay was short, only two nights, but the attic apartment with private bath and kitchenette fit our needs well. We were visiting in April, with great spring weather, but ran the air con in the attic and wonder if the air conditioning would be sufficient in summer. Location was okay, very near a bus stop and a few restaurants. We had been warned to not stay in the city centre with a rental car, because of parking, but when we walked around much closer to the center there were spots to be found, and as we were there on a weekend they would have been free. Depending on the time of year and crowds, I’d likely choose to stay closer in to the main museums. The attic is accessed by stairs only, including a tight, wraught iron spiral variety, so it would be difficult for some to climb, or to get large luggage up.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - GOOD location but was disappointed but with our stay here. We had a room on the ground floor and it was very noisy. Noise from outside but also inside. Didn’t sleep well at all.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Amazing stay, especially given budget. The advantage of using the bikes!
• Natalie B. (10/5): WONDERFUL STAY! - This was such a perfect stay! The man was extremely friendly and welcoming to me and my friend as we got to Florence. He helped us with the bus and train system and made sure that we were always comfortable. Adorable guestroom and comfortable beds! Highly recommend to anyone that is traveling to Florence and needs a place to stay. :)
• Verified traveler (6/5): Hosts can be more friendly - Not so good. We gently asked the hosts to receive our bags before check in time or give us a solution. But nothing happened. We asked the hosts how to get to the airport but didn’t explain how long could it take to wait for the shuttle or where to take it.
• Breanna (8/5): Beautiful room and home! Close to lots of things! - I am a young female and I was traveling throughout Europe on a solo trip! This guest house was close to a grocery store, restaurants, and a bus stop that took you all over Firenze including to the main train station and all of this was within a 2 minute walk! I felt extremely safe with the guys who ran the house and in the neighborhood. The owners also allow you to rent a bike from them so transportation was not an issue! The room was huge and the bed was nice. Two things that might be an inconvenience for some but not a major issue was: the shower was outside of the room as this was a guest house and not a hotel and there was some noise from the street right outside my window at night and in the morning. Other than that this was a wonderful place and you will enjoy your stay just as I did!
• Eden (8/5): Nice hotel, slightly out of the main centre - We were greeted by a friendly host who helped with our bags to the room, gave us a city map and gave us some tips and directions to landmarks, public transport etc. Hotel is old but clean and comfortable It can be a bit noisy (thin walls, so you can hear every time people open abd close doors etc). GOod kitchen facilities. Good value for money
• Steve (8/5): Thanks For A Nice Stay - The price was incredible for a nice room. I liked having a complete kitchen and the patio area where I enjoyed my food and beverage. The owners were wonderful. They owner did everything to make my stay comfortable. They took the time to explain the local transportation and recommended restaurants. I over slept in on the last morning and missed the check out time. They did not try to rush me. Thank for an enjoyable stay in a wonderful city.
• Kellie (8/5): Comfy beds - A bit noisy, from the street but everything in this area will get street noise. Nice guy, good location. Old style, real Italian hotel. Comfy beds.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Kindness and flexiblity in Florence - We enjoyed staying at the guest house. The guy who checked us in was very friendly and helpful. Kitchen was a little tight for more than a couple people wanting to prepare food and there were restrictive with only set times we could prepare meals in the kitchen which stressed me only slightly. They we're also most kind on letting us leave our bags while we finished our last day in Florence. Ever so grateful.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Hi, place was decent. No air conditioning, which would have made a difference in 40 degrees weather. Didn't get a room with a private bath as paid for but the host attempted to accommodate. Easily accessible to the centre by bus.
• Verified traveler (8/5): City guest house - Very hospitable, Mario and Dominic both great hosts, basic accommodation but spotless. We were very happy
• HP (8/5): The only down side is room has no aircon - host is friendly, location is good, close to tobacco shop, bus stop, bakery, restaurant. place is clean, the only let down is room has no air con, we arrived in a hot summer day and spending the night in the heat was quite unpleasant.
• Chris (8/5): Convenient location and helpful staff. - The Apartment was easy to find with easy access pay parking on the street in front. The apartment itself was nothing fancy, but we chose it more for it's location and I would say that it met our expectations given the price point. The small outside patio was a nice touch and the air conditioning inside worked well. We received a dinner recommendation to a fantastic little restaurant around the corner called, "Ristorante Il Templari," that we can absolutely recommend. The service was exemplary, the food delicious and the pricing very reasonable. The apartment is located just 1km from the historic downtown core, which was fortunate because everywhere we went to get bus tickets seemed to be sold out, so we ended up just walking into the core and then busing back in the evening. All in all I'd say it was a very pleasant experience and would recommend you consider it as an option if you're looking for convenient, no-frills accommodation at an affordable price. Staff was very pleasant and helpful, apartment was safe and Florence is a lovely city to explore. Enjoy!
• Pri (10/5): Absolutely Phenomenal! - Great hotel, Domenic at the front desk is an absolute asset. Great suggestions about restaurants and travel around the Florence area. Was extremely helpful in providing the map and marking places of interest and the like. Great balancony area. Inexpensive place to stay. The washer is a huge asset when you have kids and clothes to wash. So you don't have to travel with much. It was a quick 10 min stop by taxi to the SMN train station. Bus stop on the parallel street that takes you right into town.
• Derek (10/5): - Great place and great people!!!! The staff was very helpful in directing us to the best places to eat as well as sight seeing!
• charles (10/5): Excellent stay in Florence - Wonderful b&b. Close to public transportation. Clean and comfortable room.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - The room was too hot. Sleeping was uncomfortable. Couldn't open the window because of mosquitos. Windows should have screens. Nice large thick towels. On direct bus route to town which was convenient. Nice cafe around the corner.
• Fabrizio (8/5): Very reasonable hotel close to the centre - The host is extremely helpful and the place is clean and close to the centre. I will stay here again, many thanks
• Mhairi (10/5): Lovely stay - The guesthouse is lovely, really friendly welcome from the owners who were very helpful and on hand for anything we needed assistance with. Comfy beds, big rooms, good shower, plenty of wardrobe space. 20 minute walk into the heart of Florence, with easy bus and taxi access. we had a great week staying there, thanks very much!
• Verified traveler (8/5): Very easy to get to from Firenze S.M.N. - Enjoyed my stay in this guesthouse. The room was cozy and comfortable. Loved the high ceiling. The kitchen is available to guests and there is a supermarket nearby, so if you get sick of eating out, you can always pop over, get some fresh vegetables and fruits for a change. Getting to and from the guesthouse is easy. One bus there from F.S.M.N and the same bus to. From there, you can go almost anywhere. My mom was a bit concerned about the neighbourhood initially, but the street is brightly light and there are loads of people who get off at that bus stop.
• Phil (2/5): Nightmare in Florence - Hotel staff was not polite mannerly with customers during the check-in. The room was not clean properly, both in the room and bathroom. This place is located in a corner of the road. However, the window could not prevent the noise outside the room. Internet (wifi signal) was very poor. Moreover, the double bed here was not a real one as agreed. Rather, two twin beds were attached together. It was absolutely uncomfortable. It was absolutely a nightmare for travellers. I would not reconmend anyone to stay here compared to the price, which was very high in Florence.
