Perfect location and very nice host - more facilities would make it perfect!
Pros:

The host is really nice, sweet and available. The room was big enough and very clean, and the private shower and sink are very convenient. The location is incredible, few steps from the cathedral.

Cons:

It would help a lot if Wifi was installed and if some kind of AC was installed too. There were fans in the room but with 35/36 degrees there it was not always enough to be comfortable.

Pros:

The location was great. It was close to all the touristic places, markets and restaurants. Rooms are very clean.

Cons:

The facilities were not efficient enough. There was no air conditioner in the room despite the hot weather. If you want to open the windows now you will face with the mosquitoes and construction sounds. The bathrooms are separated from the room thats why you will need some equipments on there since you are not in the room. No hair dryer, no towel bar, no small stuff used in bathroom.

I was very pleasantly surprised at how simple and nice it was. Really a fantastic location.
Pros:

The place was very clean. The room large and airy and the location is amazing, right in the heart of Florence. The hostess was also kind and friendly and gave us great tips on where to eat. There were fans in the room, which kept if comfortably cool.

Cons:

If the window is open, there is a lot of noise from the street, but that is kind of what you expect when you are in such a great location. With the windows closed it was quiet. There is no elevator, so if you have very heavy luggage, you will have to struggle up two flights of stairs.

Pleasant
Pros:

The Hotel is lichtes very well and directly into the City Center! Easy to start from there in your City Trip

Cons:

The room (with external bathroom) was quite expensive for what you get! Very simple interior and the external bathroom even means to Cross the hole floor! Additionally we were woken up every Morning at 07:30 because of construction workings That were done in the hotel! If you stay there you do this propably of being in your holidays so it would be nice to have info like that before arriving or at least to have a price reduction!

Great location and very kind staff, but be prepared for a lot of noise that does not stop.
Pros:

The hotel was in a great location! Very close to nearby churches, museums, and the train station.

Cons:

The walls are THIN. The street the hotel is on is very busy and VERY loud until about 2am and then the noise starts again at about 5am. Did not sleep well, bring earplugs. The bathroom is also shared with a shower that leaks like crazy.

Awful experience in beautiful city Florence
Pros:

Location

Cons:

It was really an awful experience. First difficulty is to climb tall staircase upto 2 nd floor.It is absolutely tiring to climb the steps after coming back from shopping or roaming the city.
Then the lady over there will explain all the keys ( there are in all 4 gates and 3 keys) , then how to use common bathroom and then how to switch on and off all the lights.

There is no hook to hang the clothes in the room. All the furniture in the room is old and room looks dim, gloomy and shabby.

The bathroom is big but shower area too small to even bend and clean your feet . For using shower also the lady explains the whole procedure.

Over and above all this there is no wi-fi facility in the hotel so if your personal network is weak then your communication is completely down and off.
All in all it should not be called as a hotel . Its a private apartment converted into hotel without any hotel facility.

Great location
Pros:

Extremely clean room, private bathroom and excellent location. Host was very pleasant to interact with and check-in and communications were smooth.

Cons:

Attention to detail and guest comfort was missing. Bottled water and kettle for hot water were not provided and you cannot store your luggage after check-out. These were quite surprising even for Florence at this price point, and this is coming from a very well-travelled customer visiting Florence for the fourth time.
