Pros
Located 2952.8 ft from the new Pediatric Meyer entrance on Viale Pieraccini
Professional host management ensures safety features including fire extinguishers
Accepts bookings without credit card requirement
Some rooms feature elegant wrought-iron beds and rustic furniture
Cons
2 miles distance from Santa Maria Novella central station
3 miles from Peretola Airport
“While a bit outside the center, its proximity to convenient bus lines and a soon-to-open tram makes getting around Florence simple; plus, the neighborhood offers a local feel. The simply furnished, clean rooms include air conditioning, and a very good café next door more than compensates for the modest breakfast. In my opinion, this represents a solid value choice.”
