The beds are compfy, the rooms are large and the staff/owners are very friendly. If you need a key overnight, they give you one, so you can get back late with no problems. Its nice and quiet at night, since the place faces the back courtyard. Stayed for a week, and the hostel was perfect for me.

It was a great hostel! Right in the heart of Firenze, down the street from the Duomo and Michelangelo's David! The staff was very helpful with information about the city, great restaurants, and just very friendly! Quiet and clean place to stay and the price was right! Will definitely stay here when I go back to Firenze!

I loved David Inn!!! The location is perfect, the staff are friendly and helpful - it felt more like staying in an apartment with people rather than a hostel. The rooms are bright and cheery, I cooked some great food in the kitchen which is always a bonus for a traveler to not have to eat out every meal... This has been my favorite hostel in a month-long trek through Italy! Highly recommend.

Definitely a great place to stay. Very close to the duomo, only about a 10-15 minute walk to the train station. It seems a little run down at first, but they have super comfy beds and everything is clean. Free wifi and kitchen. Definitely would stay there again.

It's located a stone throw from Duomo's plaza and other important touristic stuff such as Academia Gallery. Facilities are really nice, I've stayed in a room with another room inside it with TV and a lot of stuff. They provide wifi, computer and stuff wich is a really hand on the wheel. Just have to improve things like security (have to the staff to open a small locker wich is in the hall) and activities. Really nice and helpful woman in the reception.

Location was good. Hostel a bit pricey but it was clean. Only downside was that the lights were really dim. Staff was really helpful!

One of the best hostels I stayed in. Neat, cozy, close to center. Bathroom in a room, kitchen, computers, common room, even nice paintings on walls. Friendly stuff too. Really pleasant.

Pretty close to the city center, but since Florence is such a small city, I personally didn't see what was so great about being 5 minutes from everything when the furthest away from the city was about 15 minutes. No breakfast, on the top floor, wifi could be better. I stayed in a 3-person room, so it wasn't bad.

Nice hostel, quite small, really close to the Dom and walkable to everything. Liked that it had free computers and a kitchen and really comfy beds. Staff nice and helpful. Only downside is it was quite quiet the whole stay and no common area to meet people in, but would probably be better in summer season.

The location of this hostel is AWESOME! Right in the middle of Florence, a short walk from the Duomo. The small staff (of it seemed like just 2 people) was really nice. It's small (just the third floor of an apartment building), but has everything you need, and is really nice to come back to after a long day of sightseeing. Also, the computers rock.

Probably one of the worst hostels I have stayed at....However the location made up for a lot, right in the centre of town. The rooms were clean, but badly set up, the kitchen was tiny and there was only 1 shower and two toilets (only one of which had a lock) for everyone. However the most annoying thing was that they didnt give you a key for the lockers or the main door and you had to wait for when the staff where around to get your stuff or get in!

This is one of the best hostels that I've ever stayed in. It had a good atmosphere, great price, perfect location for reaching all the major tourist sites in Florence, and the staff were so friendly and helpful. I would definately stay there again if I return to Florence.

Staff was helpful when we needed help, but way too often we felt like we were the only ones in the hostel. Maybe more organized social activities among the people there would be nice
