It is convenient to the train station (maybe about 10 min walk) and it’s about a 15 min walk to the Ponte Vecchio, Uffizi, and maybe 20 min from the Duomo. It’s super convenient and ideal for local restaurants, gelato, and sightseeing. Eduina was amazing and helped me out with planning day trips and was super friendly and attentive. I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Can’t recommend enough for a small hotel feel in a local Florence neighborhood. ##### Kathy Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fung Yi Amy Aug 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Discovering True Luxury Staffs are helpful, friendly, care people.
