The location was conveniently close to the railway station, while remaining outside the busiest part of the centre.
The room was clean, albeit infested by mosquitoes.
The separate bathroom was across a lobby, clean, and crammed.
The included breakfast was a voucher for coffee and croissant at a corner bakery.

Great service and stay
Leonardo and his mom were great hosts. The room was quite spacious, very good shower. There's a fridge and a kettle, tea bags and sugar were provided. Breakfast was served in the room. We had a nice time there. Location a bit far from touristy points, but convenient.

A charming little guest house. Nice location just outside of the touristy area so you are away from the crowds, but close enough to walk everywhere.
We had one of the rooms with a separate but private bathroom that was just four or five steps from the room, so not a problem.
You do get some traffic noise from the street but to be honest you’d be hard pressed to find a place in the main area of Florence that isn’t on a busy street! If you want peace and solitude you’ll need to stay further out of the city.

My husband and I had a very nice stay at Ridolphi guest house. It’s very clean and the host made a great breakfast every morning. Most sites are in walking distance and there’s also a bus stop right down the street.

This place has very convenient location, roomy for the price, and people work here are nice.
However, I had issue with hygiene.
I don't think bedding ever cleaned while I'm staying. I did some cooking class and had some chocolate power on my pants and sit on bed and left little stain. Next day, the stain looks like wiped wet towel, but can see the stain- and until the end of trip the bedding was never washed.(It looks like they make bed without washing it) Lots of dead mosquitoes are on wall. Found few ants on breakfast tray. Had very bad allergy while staying the guest house.

Not worth the price
(1) Just a B&B home style place. I booked it two months before, and the normal rate when I arrived that day is less than 70 Euro/day, almost half of my booked price. (2) Don't arrive late than 8pm, because the owners aren't there all the time, and they live far, far away. And they ask for late-check-in fee. (3) Too noisy if you open the window.

booking was cancelled and I was transferred to an apartment in another part of town, quite stressful as there is no manned reception so we had to wait around outside the block for several hours until some other guests came along

just a short walk from SMN train station
This BnB is conveniently located for walking to most sites in Florence. The bedroom was large and comfortable. The private washroom is down the hall. Breakfast is served in your room. Overall a pleasant stay. Would stay here again.

Excellent service. Even though we came in early (before check-in time), we were given a room immediately. We deeply appreciate the service and help rendered by the front desk.

It is a very nice choice to stay in this hotel. Every famous place can be reached by walk and breakfast is also included. The only thing is bathroom is not cleaned everyday during our stay. But the hotel is good.

Not a hotel, more like an apartment
Charming little B&B apartment near the train station. Staff Maria and Fabio were very attentive. Our room had high ceilings and lots of sunlight. Our private bathroom was across the hall, so it wasn't too inconvenient.

Very happy
I was very happy, and it was very good value - but be aware that the owners are not at the guesthouse all of the time. When you check in they will meet you there. This means it is important to give them a precise arrival time if possible.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Spacious room and detached private bath. Kind of flavorless in the immediate neighborhood, though very close to everything. A block away in the park is a major bus stop/hub, so the many buses coming down the street made street noise a bit undesirable, though not a deal breaker.

Central location, low-level service
Small hotel centrally in Florence. Just a few rooms with an unmanned reception. Quite nice location. The cleaning lady was there in the morning to also man the reception. I had to call beforehand to find out how to enter upon arrival. Due to nobody around I could only get an iron the day after. Breakfast served at a nearby and modern café. State of hotel fine and room spacious.
