Wonderful

In addition to the very helpful and friendly staff and the great breakfast, there are private gardens to relax in, away from the bustle of Florence proper.
The room was big and the bathroom is big too which is a very good thing to be, the location is very good about 15 minutes with the bus to city center, the bus stop is right in front of the hotel, there is a few free street parking slots and there is a paid parking about 6 minutes walking
The stay was excellent . Mr Marcio has been an excellent host and very supportive. No doubts to include this place on my next trip to Firenze. The public transport (Bus) exactly on front of this place and 20 min from the city centre, so it is very convenient. Place is clean and comfortable, breakfast, good mattresses, and quit and secure area. This place is genuinely a 5 star place. Excellent service ! FIVE STARS !
They didn’t mention before booking that it is prohibited to eat in the rooms or you receive an 80€ fine … also there was a smoking area right outside our room so the room filled with smell of cigs every few hours. The breakfast was weak, nothing freshly cooked and not worth the money. The shower was good and the host was very friendly. Too far from downtown.
We were greeted with kindness and the communication was easy. We chose a very nice room, quiete. The room was nicer than expected the pictures didn't do it justice.
i loved the staff there. they were so welcoming and eager to help even with a language barrier! all of their amenities that was listed was actually true! the best place i have visited thus far in italy
Good location, comfortable room, excellent WiFi. I was there working and it was easy to do so.

Lovely staff, clean room with lots of space. You can hear your noisy neighbours so depending on who is staying may impact your sleep. Location is far from downtown but an easy bus ride and nice local restaurants.
