8/10 Very Good

Great spot near train station
We needed a place to stay near the tram station for our last night before flying home. The location was perfect (not far from the train from Rome, and close to the tram to the airport the next day). The apartment was clean and comfortable, and the communication about how to get in/submit our passports was clear and efficient. The only downside was the steep, narrow final flight of stairs to the apartment.

6/10 Good

A decent size room close to the station and in a very convenient area for restaurants. Getting checked in is a bit of a pain - quite a few messages between the accomodation and me to sort out passport details (required by law), payment of local room tax and finally codes for getting in as their is no reception. So just be aware and don't leave things to the last minute. Florence is expensive so this wasn't bad value compared to other options in the center.

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is really well placed if you’re travelling by train, literally round the corner from the main station in Florence. The rooms are on the 3rd floor but there is a lift if you’re travelling with luggage. The rooms were very spacious and well equipped with tea and coffee making facilities, hair dryer and toiletries. There were even a few different bottles of wine in the room with wine glasses priced between €10-€15 which we thought was a really nice touch. Our room had a small balcony too which was lovely to sit on with a drink. The area around the building is pretty busy due to its location to the train station, so you could hear some noise from outside, but it didn’t really affect us. If you’re sensitive to it though I’d recommend bringing earplugs. We’d definitely stay here again.

6/10 Good

Check in was funky but okay, the issue was a warm, humid night and the AC unit was broken. This made for an uncomfortable sleeping situation as opening the balcony doors let in mosquitoes and too much noise to sleep. Had the mini split AC unit worked, this would have been an excellent stay.

Excellent location and friendly staff. Clean and pleasant room. However, You have to climb a very narrow and steep stairs to reach a room that fits 4/5 people. It is impossible task for older person or for someone not strong. It should be written in description.

NOISE!!! This was the noisiest place I have ever stayed at. Do not stay here if you are a lighter sleeper. You hear everything, everybody, and anything that drives by the building. Late night trash pickup, 2am street sweepers- so loud, 5am trash pickup again?? You get woken up every 2 hours. Warning Do not stay on this street! You will regret and remember this review at 2am

The staff was very good to us, and check-in was very neatly organized. The rooms were very comfortable, and the hotel was located close to the train station and the very beautiful Florentine streets! They let us keep our luggage before check in and after checkout and have been very accommodating. The price was perfect, and the room was fairly spacious. This was a very good guest house.
