The property is very dated and we were not told there was construction going on right outside our window. It was loud and we had to keep the blinds shut due to the men working.

Loved the room. Convenient location for walking around Florence. Check in was easy. We did not see staff after check in but knew thetmy were available if needed.

Check in was convenient and friendly. The building itself is old (beautiful), but this isn’t the St. Regis. It’s a converted apartment building with some “apartments” and some “rooms”. We stayed in a 1 bedroom apartment for one night only. It was well equipped, full European style bathroom, kitchen with the necessities, a huge bedroom and a laundry area. It was more than we needed for the night, but the location was perfect and the cost extremely reasonable. Would highly recommend unless you need to be waited on left and right.

Check in was only challenging because the hotel wanted passport identification and since we were checking in late they wanted it emailed or texted. Hotels.com blocks out the email addresses to keep the communication through their site which is a reasonable security measure. But the hotel was able to work with us and get us in when we arrived. The room was more spacious than I had imagined. It was very clean and the basket of goodies for breakfast was wonderful for us as we were just passing through. There was a washing machine and a full kitchen that we didn’t get to use, but will remember for future visits.

I liked the room, the kitchenette, the bathroom, but I discovered that one of the tables next to the bed had someone's toe nail clipping, it was a little repulsive.

Wow. What an amazing property. My wife and I stayed here with our two daughters (10 and 12), with my mum and her husband staying in an adjoining apartment (a separate apartment, but with a shared front door so that we felt like we were staying together as one big family!). Both apartments were astonishingly spacious, well-appointed, and tastefully decorated - the high painted ceilings were a highlight. The location was perfect for our needs: halfway between the Locauto car hire place and the main train station, and still easily walkable to the centre of Florence. The hosts were super-friendly. We recommend the nearby restaurant La Grotta Di Leo.

My only objection was that we were in the room directly across from the office and in the evening a couple of men in the office were having a very loud conversation (not an argument) for quite a while. It sounded like they were in our room! All they needed to do was use their "inside voices". Once the office closed at 7PM, no problems. Mark

This place is a gem! It's really a full apartment with a separate living and dining area, updated modern and clean bathroom (although a bit cramped), a fully stocked kitchen with utensils, pans, and dishware, a washing machine, and a large bedroom with a comfortable bed and beautiful view of the city. We could LIVE here. The dining area had a huge wood table, where you could gather guests. The location was fabulous, as it was a 6-minute walk from Florence Central Train station, but a 10-minute walk to basically everything - all the squares, the museums, bridges, etc. The staff was friendly, but this is the only 4-star rating section, as they had a few missteps with us, including some of them not knowing where the electrical breaker was for the stove, how to turn on the washer, not calling us when a package arrived that we'd alerted them to (they did come back after hours to deliver it after we begged), etc., but NOTHING so serious as to make us not go back, as long as you don't need true 24/7 assistance. If you are planning on Florence, plan on this property, as it's really fabulous, as you can actually cook in the kitchen, and be really close to everything. We would absolutely return for an extended stay here!

The place is not a hotel, it’s more like a vacation property rental. The rooms in the images were probably taken like 10 years ago, because the rooms look run down, or at least the one we had. The place is the bottom two floors of a building and it was hard to find. Once we got there, it took like 20mins Rea to get in because they didn’t answer the messages I had sent them. The building is also across the street from a charity home building, so expect people to be smoking outside at all times and stare at you as you walk down the street. Definitely affected my experience in Florence. The staff was also not super helpful and had the “it is what it is” attitude.
