The staff here was so accommodating and I could not even ask for a better experience. The location was great, and it was more like being at home than anything else. I would recommend this place to anybody.

Although double glazing hgas been installed in the rooms facing the street, it was not that effective against noise funneling up from the street. As a result, sleep was at a premium. A kettle in the room would have been good. Other than that it was perfect for our needs.

The kindest and most helpful staff we've encountered so far on our 5 weeks of backpacking. Thank you all!

Lovely little Hotel, very friendly staff and great location. Can be quite loud in bedroom next to reception but otherwise great. Would stay there again.

Worst hostel I have ever stayed in. When we arrived nobody answered the door and we were locked outside with our packs for over an hour. Got yelled at for shutting the door too loudly and being loud at about 6 pm.   Read Owner Comments

So close to the main sights!Comfortable & clean.Staff are friendly & helpful.Whilst breakfast not included, Hotel is surrounded by nice cafes but more information could be published about this.Heating effective, room comfortable.Ensuite clean and use of space good, but some more hooks or shelves would be good addition.I would recommend this place to friends as good budget stay.

Leonardo and Francesca speak excellent English, were very helpful with giving directions and making reservations at the Uffizi and Academio museums for us. This is an excellent place to stay for reasonable rates. Free internet also a plus. Very convenient to train and bus stations, as well as only a short walk to the main attractions.
