The hotel is a small collection of rooms in an older building. But the room was large and clean, the air conditioning worked, and the bathroom was updated. The staff was very helpful. The hotel is small with no breakfast, but they provided orange juice in the refrigerator every day and some packaged rolls/crackers. Well located near the train station and reasonably walkable to the important places in Florence. We enjoyed our stay.

What a beautiful apartment! I felt we were sleeping in a museum. With that authentic feel from the past comes with it a small but managable bathroom, kitchen and fridge, and lots of space. The air conditioners tried to keep up with the unusual hot temperatures. Staff was helpful, allowed us to store our luggage and the location was close to the train station, away (but not too far) from the more touristy area, area was safe.

The Hause was clean and there were enough kitchenware to function in the kitchen like your home. You could run the dishwasher or wash the dishes manually. Neighbor hood had some noise for road construction, but it didn’t bother us. Rey close to supermarket, main train station, and other markets. Easy accessible to bus tracks and stations as well. It was a wise choice to take that house.
