Now staying in Cinque Terre, I recognize that I much prefer an ocean nearby and the sea breeze. A more quaint atmosphere with a small village feel. With that in mind, Im very glad we stayed outside of central Florence and more in a local area. Daniele is kind and speaks very good english and will take the time to help you get situated which was extremely needed and appreciated. We did find the noise level high and the other guests (3 other rooms sharing common kitchen) very loud and inconsiderate up until 1am or later. After the first night we found we needed ear plugs. Staying in a hotel the previous nights, Im sure it is thin walls in comparison. Also, the title Bed and Breakfast mislead me. I thought it included breakfast and didn't think to double check (my fault) under house rules. That was disappointing for sure but there was a kettle for tea and coffee.
We are glad we stayed there and wish you the best on your journey in Florence
