Florens Bed & breakfast

It's very central to all major visitation destinations of the city. 10 min walk to everything. Get a city view room. It's worth it! The reception desk was very helpful, calling taxi's for us and making reservations for restraints and attractions. The indoor space and rooms were beautiful! Very romantic and LARGE!!! Finding the hotel and getting in is hard. Minimal signage, you can't walk into a main corridor. You have to figure out to hit a button and explain to a person through an intercom that you are staying there, then they buzz you up. The paper for the button that says Galileo 2000 is old and worn too.

The location was great as far as proximity to points of interest like Ponte Vecchio, Uffizi, Galileo Museum. The walks to other places weren't bad at all and gave the opportunity to find places to eat and shop. The river is also very close and beautiful at night and in the morning. Our room (#8) was very quiet. Breakfast was at a cafe very close by with a very nice man working each morning. I had only one issue with hot water the first morning. I emailed Daniela and she had it checked out and confirmed there was indeed hot water to our room. Never had an issue after that. Communication was great. The entrance to the building has a strong odor when the doors aren't left open during the day. Galileo has very little control over this I'm sure. Luckily enough the smell does not lead upstairs or into the rooms. Still a great stay regardless.

Perfect location. Pleasant, helpful staff in an elegant old building. Steep stairs, and the communial breakfast arrangements, but to be fair, it's diffucult to see how it could be otherwise in such an old building.

Right in the middle of Florence, friendly staff, clean, good value for money. Simple breakfast and no regular reception service, but then it is a B&B. It was nice to drop by the room in between all site seeing and sit on the balcony with a cup of coffee (from the free machine in the breakfast room) on the balcony over the head of all tourists rushing from accademia to uffici. We had ordered a four man room but got to double rooms for the same price. We would stay there again because of centrality.

Free coffee, tea and water with internet point opens 24/7. High Ceiling, private balcony for certain rooms - great to take a cup of coffee at the private balcony, watching people walking by the Repubblica Plaza downstair between Uffize and the Academy. Lift to reach the B&B, no concern for carrying suitcases. Marco, the owner, and Ena are both very nice. Shower place is small. I spend only 15 minutes for a shower and it doesn't bother me. On my arrival to the Repubblica Plaza, it took me a bit time to locate the building's entrance, which is right next to the restaurants.
