This inn is steps from the Duomo and less than 10 minutes from the train station. The building is mixed use and the inn is on the upper floors. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and clean.

The room was ok.. very dated and small but sufficient for 1 night however, the building was very confusing because the hotel is only on one floor.. the entrance to the building had old dirty couches lining the hall. The man at the check in was very friendly and helpful.

The rooms were clean and cool. We stayed there with my teenager and had lots of room.
The location was easy to get to from the train station. It was easy to walk to the sights.
The breakfasts were great. We had a large choice of food.
And the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Simply fabulous!
We had a fabulous stay here. The rooms were so private, comfortable and quiet, spotless and great aircon for the hot Florence summer. Our host was so helpful with any advice or information we needed. Great breakfast included daily at the restaurant next door. Ideally positioned right in the centre of the Duomo area - quick walk to everything and the tram stop from the airport. There’s a lovely rooftop terrace where you can relax and listen the sound of the city and church bells…highly recommend this residence. We’ll be back!

The room was very nice, good space, clean and nice bathroom.
Getting to the property was a little harder and we had to call to find the entrance. The main door is difficult to find. They did provide access to a lift, which (luckily) had just been repaired - carrying 70kg of luggage up the dark steep stairs would not have been fun!
Staff were attentive and very helpful, providing some good food recommendations.
Property is in great location, walkable from the main station and to all attractions.

Perfect location! Room was clean & comfortable. Staff was friendly & helpful. Breakfast was at the cafe next door and had plenty to choose from. Coming from Rome, we appreciated the slower pace of Florence. Would stay here again.

Difficult to find since there are 2 hotels with the same address #6. Breakfast is excellent in the next door restaurant with breakfast vouchers. Charming 600 yr old monastery turned into this 7 unit hotel on the 3rd floor. Staff very enthusiastic and helpful at check-in. Guest relation not on property 24/7, but accessible by phone…not sure how prompt since we did not need emergency services. Good bed, good A/C, good bathroom. Cleanliness rated low because of spider webs on the ceiling and visible dust on ceiling light fixture. We slept well because of the quiet room and the comfortable bed.

Great location, help, and breakfast!
This hotel is amazing! The rooftop terrace is out of this world with amazing views that cannot be missed! The front desk was so incredibly helpful and they gave us many tips on the beautiful city of Florence. The room was so comfy and we would definitely stay here again. The hotel was in a central location and the breakfast every morning was so delicious! Pick this hotel!
