I am extremely happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at my B&B, and thank you so much for the kind words about me. I'm also glad that the tips were helpful to you, I think it's important to get advice about a city you don't know from people who live there.I look forward to your next vacation in Florence :-)Thanks again,Luisa

The location of the property was excellent. Who wouldn't want to step outside and see the Duomo on the doorstep?! When we arrived (a little later than planned due to flight delays), We called the number on the booking and a lovely lady explained how we entered the property, which room we were in and to check in with reception in the morning. Waiting in our exceptionally clean room was our keys and breakfast coupons for two cafes downstairs. We were a little apprehensive of being so central with street noise, but the windows were all double glazed which really helped with noise, although we were disturbed during the night from people outside, but its the city centre, so we expected that. The room was cleaned daily and we thoroughly enjoyed having breakfast looking out at the Duomo each morning. It was also great to have a base to return to during the day for a breather and comfort break! 5 stars for us.

Right beside the Duomo!
I chose this B&B because of its proximity to the Duomo and it didn’t disappoint in that respect. Sadly, not all rooms have a view of the Duomo so be careful which room you book if this is important to you. Prior communication and check-in was excellent considering reception was unstaffed when I arrived. My room was clean and comfortable with fresh decor. The bathroom, although not en-suite, was next door and also spotless. The tea/coffee making facilities were great, there was a fridge and safe. The high point was the breakfast. I was given a voucher each day and breakfast could be taken at either of two neighbouring cafes. One of them was in Piazza del Duomo, what a treat! Both did delicious breakfasts.

Dear customer, I am sorry you were not satisfied with your stay. The room you booked has a description as "small double room" so the size is small compared to other rooms. We also have very large rooms, maybe you should have booked those. The single bed is a standard size 90x190cm, it is not smaller than a usual single bed.Greetings,

We had 3 nights in Florence recently. The B & B is positioned well to be able to walk to major must sees. Unfortunately I am quite disappointed with the room and the photos on the website that are not conducive to what I was given. When approaching staff about this I was told Luisa was apologetic but photos were old. Well a city view the room did not have, we had shutters on our room and had to stick our head out of the window and turn left to see any view, no bidet (which was not a big deal) and the dust was shocking around the skirting boards and a bed that needs to be replaced. Luisa I approached before I left to actually have you resolve this matter but you did not. You will reply to me, saying sorry now, but to be honest it is not good enough after the fact. I am a travel agent and book guests all around the world, and when researching clients trips we rely on recommendations or pictures that are up to date.
Response from Luisa on 14 Sept 2023
Thank you for your review and I am sorry to hear your disappointment. However, I must make some clarifications.The photos of the room are absolutely NOT old but are very true. Perhaps you are referring to the photo of the bathroom!2 months ago we completely renovated the bathroom, the shower was enlarged and the bidet, which was not used, was removed. The photos of the bathroom are indeed not true but I must say that we have made an improvement, it is now much better!Yesterday afternoon the mattress was replaced.Regarding the view, the Duomo is only 30 metres from us, you have to turn your head slightly to the left but to say that you don't have a view is really ridiculous!!!Thank you for pointing out that there was dust on the skirting board (behind the bed) All the rooms therefore received extra cleaning with sanitisation (as was done during the Covid period).

The property couldn't have been more centrally located. Yes, you have to walk up a flight of stairs, but you're rewarded with a lovely view of the duomo. Luisa at reception was very welcoming and gave some very good suggestions on places to go (even for someone who has been to the city several times!). The single room I booked was small but very clean and met all my needs. The price included a substantial breakfast at my choice of two nearby cafes that were both very nice. I would definitely stay here again.

Dear Luis,you were here at my B&B for several days and you always told me that everything was fine, that everything was good and beautiful. Your score is 6 out of 10, it doesn't seem to me that you were very satisfied. You could have told me what was wrong and I could have changed it. I'm very sorry I couldn't satisfy you. My goal is to make your holiday something unforgettable but if you don't tell me what you don't like, I can't improve.I hope there will be another opportunity to host you and improve your experience.

I loved this property and would definitely stay here again! Everything you needed to see/do was within walking distance, and there are tons of restaurants and shops nearby. The Duomo is steps away, and Ponte and Palazzo Vecchio were a 15 minute walk away. I was staying with a friend, and as two young girls we felt completely safe!
