We stayed 2 nights at this B&B. The accommodation is quite well located: in our case, we arrived in Florence by train and from the Florence SMN train station to the accommodation it is about 20 minutes walk (with suitcases). In addition, it is about 10-15 minutes walk from the Florence Cathedral and about 7 minutes walk from the Accademia Gallery (which is where the authentic "Michelangelo's David" is located). From the street where the B&B is located you can see the Florence Cathedral. I was surprised that they "insisted" that we confirm the time of arrival at the accommodation (we said it was approximate) although it is understandable, since the reception is from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. (I imagine that if you arrive outside of that time and notify us, there is no problem). The room was quite large, spacious, bright and almost brand new. The bathroom, like the room, was also very large and bright. As for noise at night, neither of the 2 nights did we have any problems: we couldn't hear anything (not other guests, no noise from the street, no cars, etc.). The only drawback, for me, was the breakfast. In our case, we had €49 to spend during our stay on breakfast (included in the price of the accommodation). They send you an email to the email address that you indicate and, from that email, the entire breakfast offer that you have appears: you can choose what you want and combine it however you want, until you reach the limit you have available (in the event that If you want to consume more than the balance you have, you can pay it separately). And you have to leave your breakfast selected before 10:00 p.m. (although it is true that the guy who checked us in told us that they were not very strict with this, as long as you give considerable advance notice). Disadvantage of this method? The price of things. For example, coffees (no matter what type of coffee) are priced at €2.50, a bowl of yogurt with fruit €5.50, French omelette €7. If you are a person who eats variety and a considerable amount for breakfast, you have to adjust your breakfast. Another drawback of breakfast? The time. In my case, I am used to having a time range during which I can have breakfast when I am in this type of accommodation and when I am on vacation. In this case, you have to indicate what time you want to have breakfast ready the day after. The "good" thing about breakfast? You have the option to have it delivered to your room. From my point of view, it is not a bad option if you don't know where to stay in Florence. Although my stay was good and very quiet, I would not stay at this B&B again.
