Clean Room located close to attractions.

The room was in a great location, close walk to major attractions within the city. It was kept very clean and turned over daily by the staff. However, the breakfast left something to be desired as it consisted of only bread w/ jam/Nutella and yogurt. Also, had more of an AirBNB feel as there was not always a staff member available on the property. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay.

Functional a place to stay

The place was hard to get to especially if you are driving because traffic is really strict in the historic part of town. The outside of the building is under renovation and does not look appealing. The room was clean and functional. The personnel was kind, although they didn’t speak much English. There is no sit down area in the kitchen so you need to eat your breakfast in the room. The location is great if you plan on walking.

Perfect location next to Santa Croce, Uffizi 10 minute walk, great restaurants all around hotel. Room is modern, clean, cold air conditioning, water bottles everyday, croissants for breakfast, coffee machine in kitchen, very clean bed linens and pillows, our room had two doubles and a single so could fit 5 no problem, best choice for us, made our trip to Florence very memorable, would stay again for sure! There is a cooking school 8 minutes north of here called Chef Factory, this was the highlight of our trip!

Wonderful staff!!

The staff was very accomodating and did not have any racist misgiving unlike the rest of Venice; I found the people of venice not so welcoming- in fact they don't like tourists much, so try not to bother them much. The hotel bed was comfortable; they provided all toiletries; breakfast was a neat spread. They even let us leave our luggage in the hotel until it was our time to leave. It would have been nice if they revovated the hotel overall. I would recommend this hotel.

Fine stay, mediocre service

We arrived at Black 5 after a long and frustrating morning/afternoon of travel. We took the bus with our large suitcases, and got to the building around 1:15. We buzzed up to be let in, and was told that check-in was not until 2. We were then let up, but told by the housekeeper that we could leave our bags but had to leave immediately. We were all but pushed out the door! (It would have been nice to use the bathroom....) When we came back, a new person was at the front desk and was polite, but very direct: "You need to pay the city tax in cash, please and now." He was perfectly cordial, but didn't show us to our room or anything. For the rest of our stay, no one looked up at us as we entered and left Black 5, much less greeted us. It all felt very impersonal, which was exactly the opposite environment we'd want from a "B&B" (and to be clear, this was an old-school pensione, not a bed and breakfast). The breakfast, which was the whole reason we chose this place (in order to save money and also be able to get an earlier start to the day) was packaged croissants and cornflakes, with powdered coffee. Powdered coffee, in Italy?! The room itself was fine, and the bathroom was clean (although the shower nozzel seems to have been attached improperly, so it blasts water onto the floor when you're bathing). The one thing that was REALLY annoying was the trash and recylcing truck that seemed to come by at every single hour of the day and night, waking us up quite a bit.

It is NOT a hotel! It's a B and B. Misleading name

You pay for breakfast for 4 people!!And for breakfast you get no milk even! You get biscuits and crackers with 2 yoghurts in a fridge and coffee satches. A small cornflakes pack but no milk!! You will be charged 30 euros/ hour after 6pm arrival as a call out charge to let you in. Staff absent/unhelpful. No lift on ground floor. 3 flights of 71 stairs first so imagine if youre pregnant and have twins in a baby buggy!! and alot of luggage! Awful! left the next day. Not a hotel ;( room was clean but we had a mezzanine floor for our 2 year old twins..no cots...not appropriate...all 4 of us slept in a small double bed ; ( very tired hungry and unhappy ;(. Left next day. No one at checkout so had to leave keys with cleaners. Street views of other concrete building. No nice sights to see. Dark alleyway.

Great hotel for the price, friendly staff, clean, modern decor. The hotel is great for no fuss travelers who are okay with not everyone speaking perfect English and who do not need a 24hour front desk, but we did not need that so it had just what we needed. Great access to the city. Taxis were close by if needed.

The location of this bed and breakfast is great(very close to the main attractions). If you get a good deal it does worth the stay.You need to carry your luggage one floor to reach the elevator. The breakfast is not good,there is an electrical kettle in the room to make your own tea. But if you are a coffee drinker you need to go out and buy your breakfast coffee!!! There is a tray in the room containing some prepackaged foods as breakfast. Not good at all!

Florence Apartment

If you are looking for a spacious, comfortable, clean and large apartment in central Florence, this is the place. We had a wonderful time in Florence and this apartment was perfect. Room 14 has double height ceilings and comfortable beds. There isn't much of a view but we didn't intend to spend much time there. It's not a hotel so don't stay here if you need room service and a restaurant. The staff are brilliant and the set up is great.
