“Awesome view, quaint & comfortable room.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 November 2011

A lovely room with a wonderful view of the Duomo. There is even a small balcony perfectly situated for people watching. Walking distance to everything. Only drawback is the street noise level at night. With so many people taking in Florence there is bound to be some voices and even singing throughout the evening!

Room Tip: Interior rooms are probably quieter, but being on the corner with two windows was worth having a lit...

“Worst night of our two weeks vacation through France and Italy...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2011

person found this review helpful

B&B is central and our room (triple) had a nice view on the Duomo...however the room was very small for 3 persons, and facilities pretty basic. No AC, antique windows so you can enjoy until late during the night the noise from the bars/restaurants closeby, and early in the morning from the delivery services to the shops, out of date bathroom equipment (my daughter end her shower holding the plastic door, to avoid it fall onto the floor...)
Central Florence is a traffic restricted area, so if you are driving to florence...and want to drop your stuff to the B&B try to do it late or early in the morning, to avoid fine...or find a place that do have a traffic agreement with the Carabinieri...

In addition... Breakfast was already served in our room when we arrive in the evening, and consisted of a bunch of cheap blistered cookies with nescafé... When Italia can delight you with so nice capuccino... disapointed.

Finally, the check-out is before 10am... I guess for that reason they optimized the breakfast... So if you plan to take your time and relax.. find an other (better) place.

To resume... NOT AN OPTION....FIND AN OTHER PLACE....!!!!

“No air con, no wifi, great view”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 September 2011 via mobile

person found this review helpful

We stayed in room 6. The best room overlooking the duomo. Great view. No real complaints with the place itself - I mean it does it's job but is very average at it.

The shower doors fell off in our hands. There was no air con so we got a poor nights sleep as it was 25c overnight.

The advertised wifi doesn't reach that room - you have to go sit in reception.

Breakfast is a pile of prepackaged stale crap.

Great view redeems a lot of these flaws however on our way out we saw the other rooms. They are tiny. I mean properly small - stay in num6 at all costs!

“Great location and comfort for a fair price.”

Stayed here for three nights this spring with my girlfriend. The place is actually a large apartment with a few rooms that are decently decorated and have en suite. There are plenty of places nearby where you can get dinner and all of the attractions in Florence are within walking distance.

“BEWARE worst accom on our 7 week trip through Europe.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 July 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Ok we understand this place is 'budget' and we are both in our twenties and no stranger to doing it rough BUT... this place is the only place we have left a bad review for on our entire 7 week trip through Europe.

Rooms are small and pokey with no air con and very little room (Florence is very very hot in summer and we are from Australia so no stranger to hot climate). The beds need to be thrown out they are extremely worn and you can feel the springs. The bathroom is also terrible. The toilet is literary underneath the shower and you cannot use the sink without standing in the shower. Walls in the rooms also have mould growing up them.

Through out our stay in Italy we have come to realize that most rooms are small (ESP. Bathroom) but this takes the cake.

Breakfast is a heap of packaged crap that looks like it has been sitting there for a while. And they have a notice in the room that says they cannot serve 'fresh' food due to law but seriously you could at least offer milk and basic cereal in the reception in the morning... Which pretty much every other place we have stayed I'm Italy has offered at least (same price range in the other cities).

By far the worst element of the place is the service. In particular the reception which is only open from 9am until 1pm!!!!!! That's just four hours....

We arrived at 2pm via train and did not see ANYONE except a cleaner for the entire four days!!! And we were up and about around 8am - 9am each day.

Finally our towels did not get changed once our whole stay and just got hung back up dirty...

Position is good but in hindsight we would have much rather stayed a little further from the Domo at a place that was not so impractical and at least had a reception open more than four hours a day....
