I cannot wait to go back!
Pros:

I would urge everyone to stay at Hotel Cestelli, simple for Alessio and Asumi, who are exceptional hosts! They are so well-versed in Florence and Tuscany- their recommendations helped improve our experience greatly!
The property is more of a homestay, rather than a fancy hotel, which is exactly what makes it so special!
The room was tastefully decorated, and was super comfortable.
They do not have a common kitchen, but gave us a water kettle, and some glasses, and plates for the room. You really do not need a kitchen in a city like Florence!
The building has a small elevator, which is really helpful if you are carrying heavy suitcases.

最高、また利用したい
Pros:

日本人の女性が経営なさっていてとても安心して泊まることができました。初めて海外旅行で不安がたくさんあったが丁寧な対応で分からないこと全て教えてくださった。

Cons:

強いて言うならホテルの場所がいいところにあるため夜少し外から声が聞こえた。ただ11時までには聞こえなくなるため、私は気にならなかった
