After an excellent stay in sorrento and capri, this Florence guesthouse was a real dissappointment. Ivan the keeper of the guesthouse was nice and accomodative and even picked us up from the station, but the guesthouse was very bad. First since it was on the main road and we got the road facing room, it was loud and even after... More

This history is full of mystery. This girls denounced that they could have a hot shower in three days. They have been unlucky because, everytime we tested the shower when they were out of the room, the shower was hot indeed. I just don't understand why, when I asked to test the shower in their presence, they didn't want to... More

Coming into our guests room to empty the dustbins and to verify the level of soap and presence of toilette paper is usual for us. We try not to touch anything but this girls filled up their room with clothes on wires to get dry (besides all we ask not to wash clothes in the room). More

We are students in Rome and we found this little cozy place in the centre of the artistic Florence. The room was very clean and quite large for two people, with a comfortable bathroom and some services like breakfast room service which are typical of more expensive hotels. Beds seemed new and we liked all the decorations. More

Definitely more for hostelers, not the most romantic place in a supposedly romantic city. Close to the train station which has obvious advantages but also some unexpected disadvantages due to the hectic nature of the area. Ivan was the most polite and accommodating host which really added a personal touch. He did give us our own room intended for 5-6... More

I stayed at My Friends in October at the Via Faenza location. There are two rooms available with ensuites at this location and the owner manager is onsite with his family. I felt I got what I paid for as this was amongst the cheapest accommodation I found in Florence that included a private bathroom. There is nothing flash about... More

My partner and I stayed at My Friends Guesthouse in June 2008 and were very happy with the accomodation. After initially booking a room at the Via Faenza location, we were a little worried about being re-located to the Via Ricasoli premises (Giulia Guesthouse). The extra walk between the two places isn't too far unless you have heavy luggage! The... More

There are two locations for this guesthouse, we stayed at the one in the center, and it was great! It is a big, beatiful apartment, and you rent one of the 3 bed rooms. Quiet, next to just about everything and cheap. Though you have to be willing to share bathroom. The owner (we think she was) comes by every... More
