I had a great stay at the Hotel Cestelli. It’s on a side street a few minutes the Ponte Vecchio Bridge. The owner and his wife kept the place spotless and clean. Yes, it was a pain having to share a bathroom and toilet with other guests. Fortunately it wasn’t too much of an inconvenience. Most of the time I didn’t have to wait to use the facilities. The water pressure wasn’t the best for getting showered but after letting the tap run the water was ok. September /October was unseasoned warm so there were a few mosquitoes in Florence. The owner provided me with a plug in Mosquito deterrent that worked for me. I wasn’t bitten in the room. There was some outside noise but not enough to cause me any issues with sleep quality. The best part of this Hotel is it’s location right in the heart of the historical area. The owner and his wife were very helpful with local knowledge and nothing was too much trouble for them to do. Taking into account the rating of the Hotel, the helpfulness of the owner and his wife as well as the price I paid for staying in the historical quarter, it’s location close to most of the sights, I would have no hesitation staying here again.
