There is a tram station nearby, so it's very convenient. The water pressure in the shower was also great. Best of all, there is a delicious jarato restaurant nearby.

I don’t normally write reviews but this was a really sweet small B+B which was perfect. Communal sun terrace for breakfast/ sitting out. It was clean and Angelica on reception friendly .

Angelica was absolutely lovely and so helpful the entire stay we had with her. Breakfast was tasty and filling, the room was clean, and the terrace was peaceful! We love walking so we were happy to walk the 15 minutes to duomo. We would stay again forsure! Thank you so much

10/10 Exceptional

Good spot with a great terrace for trying out a bottle of Tuscan wine. Not in the city center but close enough to walk or use a short cab ride. It’s not fancy but we found it comfortable.
Mark, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It is clear the owners care about the space and had good communications before arrival. We were able to walk to our destinations. The rooms likely vary. We had the Tulip room and it was not well represented on the site. Its bathroom and shower were very small and the room could use a refresh. However, for the price and location, it was acceptable.
Allen, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very convenient location

Conveniently located. About 18 minutes walk from the Firenze S.M.Nuvella train station, 15 minutes to the city center, and for us, about 15 minutes walk towards the pickup location for the Siena Chianti day tour. Angelica was very responsive and checked in with us for our arrival time. Clean room and our bed was made every day. If you are a light sleeper, it may be a bit noisy since it is right beside Via Giovanni Milton, but it should be okay since you will do a lot of walking and hiking during the day. Recommended.
Philip, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Bed was broken. No person to contact in case you need anything. Bad shower. Bed was so bad I couldn’t sleep all three nights. Do not recommend. Bad customer service.
Helen, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful stay in Camera Giglio. The highlight of the clean, comfortable space was the terrace accessible directly from our room with a table and 2 chairs for enjoying a bottle of Chianti after a day out and about. For 10€ per person extra, the host Angelica provides breakfast on the lower part of the delightful terrace that features a few tables and seating for lounging. Angelica was very helpful before and during our stay. She ordered a taxi for us for a very early checkout to catch a train to Salerno and to get to the meeting point for our Tuscan Wine Tasting tour. The neighborhood is quiet and felt very safe. Since we are older and have limits to the distances we can walk, we only wish we realized it was further from central Florence than expected. Prepare for 10 minute taxi ride to popular spots like Piazza Santa Maria Novella and the main train station. You will need to call for a taxi because there doesn't appear to be any nearby taxi stands where you can easily walk to. Flagging taxis on the street, of course, is not done in Florence. Also note while towels and a bath mat are provided, small washcloths are not. Those are small details though that are just good to know. We will definitely stay here again.

Accommodation was good, no frills, but then you should not expect any at this style and price of the room. It was very clean , a good modern bathroom. Important you advise of arrival time as a member of staff welcomes you , and opens up for you.There is no other staff on duty in the property. Road outside rather noisy at night.

I had a really wonderful stay! The location was nice and quiet. It was also a relatively short walk to the train station. The staff at the reception desk was super helpful and accommodating, I would definitely stay here again!

B&B situato a circa 1km dalla stazione di S.Maria Novella, facilmente raggiungibile anche a piedi. Collocata in una zona molto tranquilla e vicino le fermate degli autobus/tram, la struttura è un appartamento con al suo interno stanze abbastanza moderne, molto pulite e insonorizzate. L’impianto di riscaldamento è centralizzato a termosifoni. Bagno completamente ristrutturato e spazioso, letto molto comodo. La signora è stata molto gentile, ci torneremo.

We had to make a last minute reservation due to being stranded in Florence (train strike) and we were in our room within half an hour of making the reservation, despite the reception being closed, thanks to the prompt help of Angelica.
Tracey, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The place was ok, but the pictures made it look much nicer. It had limited AC in beastly hot weather, no refrigerator in the room for cold drinks, and the shower was tiny. Also, with the staff saying towels wouldn't be replaced daily, there should be adequate spots to hang them to dry. The staff, when there, were very pleasant.
