Port Saint Lucie, Florida Linne Esposito (2011-03-24 08:33:50) This is a wonderful guest house for a bargain price. Rooms are spacious and well fournished, everything works, it's spotlessly clean, so conveniently located (between Santa Croce and the Duomo), good and abundant breakfast, the rooms have frescoes.... The staff is warm, friendly, helpful, knowledgeable. Very warm and personable atmosphere. It is truly such a deal!

Montreal, Canada Dianne Ellen (2011-03-24 08:31:03) Absolutely fantastic, central location, great breakfast, friendly multilingual reception people, clean and comfortable rooms, quiet and peaceful after full days of sightseeing... all at a fantastic price. You have to be able to lug your baggage up 2 flights of stairs - no elevator - but if you have no problem with that then this is the place to stay. I would go back in a flash.

baltimore marybell (2011-02-25 12:15:58) This place is fantastic! It is very clean and the rooms are quite big and well furnished. It is also very well located between Duomo and Santa Croce, in the heart of Florence. Breakfast is really gorgeous, and the homemade cake was delicous.Anna and Tiziana are so friendly and helpful, too. I warmly recommend it!
