The single room is in the attic upstairs, small but clean and sufficient. The bathroom is private for the guest, located just outside the room, and is clean and spacious. The staff is very friendly. The location is a bit far from the city center, but not excessively. Highly recommended.

Huge room!
This B&B was darling! Huge patio and room for a family! Great water pressure in the shower and the bed was comfortable. We didn’t eat breakfast as we had an early flight but we would definitely recommend this place!

I really enjoyed this bed and breakfast, where you could have the breakfast in the garden. Felt more like a real b&b than a hotel or air bnb for example, which was nice. The breakfastcould have been a little nicer for the price. Location was good, 20 minutes from train station by foot

Lovely B&B in Florence
This is a great place to stay to explore Florence. Clean, quiet, and just a 15 minute walk from the centre. Special mention to Joan who put on a great breakfast every morning to set you up for the day. Highly recommend.

Was such a nice and refreshing stay on our final night in Italy. We were tired and hot. We arrived to a super friendly check in and a cool/relaxing room. The garden put the back was really relaxing and the breakfast was well done. It made a nice change from the usual hotel stays. I'd definitely return here.

Fantastic place to stay
Just returned from a fantastic stay I can’t express how overjoyed and Impressed with the accommodation, service I received. The breakfast was amazing! Cleanliness was excellent. I was lucky to have a whole little area including bedroom and separate bathroom and little balcony which was exclusive for the single room.
I can’t recommend staying at the hotel enough the garden is beautiful too. .
