Perfect location, wonderful staff, spotless facilities, and a great atmosphere. I would happily stay here again

The location was excellent, just a 4-minute walk from the train station and right in the heart of Florence. All the main attractions were within walking distance. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help. They provided detailed information about the city and gave great recommendations for places to visit. The hostel had a fully equipped kitchen, and they even offered food and snacks for guests, which was a very nice touch. Everything was very clean and well organized. I truly enjoyed my stay and felt comfortable throughout my visit. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Florence.

Satisfactory. A bit pricey.

Location is close to main attraction places. You can walk around the neighborhood. The room is also very clean and the shared kitchen with free stuffs was indeed a plus.

A fantastic-value hostel with great staff, generous amenities, and an unbeatable location

The property is conveniently located near Santa Maria Novella train station, within walking distance of all the major attractions and the tram stop to and from the airport. The street itself has plenty of restaurants nearby, and supermarkets are easily accessible too. The hostel is clean and well-maintained - the bed is comfortable, and housekeeping tidies the room and makes the bed every day, which is a lovely touch. They also provide free towels, which sets them apart from most hostels. The free food on offer is surprisingly generous: pasta, pasta sauce, basic spices, oil, juice, yogurt, eggs, biscuits, and toast. The kitchen is well-equipped, and there are two fridges - one stocked with the complimentary items and a separate one for personal use. The staff were warm and welcoming, handing out a map at check-in and taking the time to walk you through everything. And as a bonus for coffee lovers - they have a proper De’Longhi espresso machine, which was a real highlight! Amazing value for money and the hostel is highly recommended. One final bonus - the neighbour’s two black cats would occasionally visit the terrace, and I loved photographing them against the colourful walls.

Great value for money close to station and city centre

Loved this hostel! Really made our stay in Florence. About 5 min walk from the main station and less than 10 minute walk into the main part of town. Staff were so lovely and helpful, providing info on the best places to see and eat. Beds were comfy! Rooms and bathroom were kept very clean. AND free breakfast (ingredients: bread, eggs, juice, cereal, etc)! Would definitely come back here when visiting again :)

Amazing

First of all, the location is very central—right next to the station and close to all the museums and galleries of Florence, so you can easily explore everything on foot. They provide a fridge stocked with plenty of supplies for guests to prepare their own food, and the overall conditions were very good. The staff were friendly, helpful, and gave great recommendations on places to explore.

Amazing hostel, but not the most social

Great beds, huge lockers, great dorms, great location (10min walk from Duomo, 25 to Uffizi), very clean, free towel and free food. The girl at the reception took a good 10-15min to tell me what there was to see, what to eat where, and prices. Honestly it's a great place!
