Beware
Found out by email in Italian ( I speak English), 12 hours before our arrival, that they could not accommodate 3 people and then they canceled the reservation and charged me. Then they did not answer when customer service from Hotels.com called them. STAY AWAY. We booked 6 wks ahead of time, they could have indicated they couldn't accommodate me and my 2 sons

Our Savior
After having our Apartment for the week double booked by the host we were without a place to stay. This B and B turned out to be the best part of our trip. We showed up to check in and found that again our stay had been double booked. However the owner of the house gave up his own room so we would have a place to stay in Florence. The house was cozy and the Pietro is friendly and an excellent host. We made friends with the other house guest around our age and had a great night in Florence! I definitely recommend this host!

Pulito ed economico!
Piccolo B&B poco distante dal centro storico di Firenze, comodissimo per chi raggiunge la città in macchina (infatti c'è un parcheggio gratuito poco distante). Camera e bagno in comune pulitissimi, peccato che essendo nel sottotetto hanno i soffitti un po' bassi. La ragazza che ci ha accolto è stata molto gentile e precisa, la colazione era buona e con molta scelta.

Excelente!
Eligimos este sitio Porqué era el más barato!! Resulta que el b&b es encantador, muy acogedor y limpio. Tiene un jardín precioso y está ligeramente fuera del centro pero igualmente tiene encantos alrededor. Está cerca del río y de una bonita plaza para admirar la puesta del sol, Piazzale Michelangelo. La chica encargada de atendernos Claudia, así como el dueño Pietro, han sido de lo más amables y acogedores posible. Desayuno excelente y abundante, totalmente flexible a nuestros horarios. Fue una estancia muy relajante, una experiencia totalmente positiva. Absolutamente recomendable!!
