Liked: Location. Oh and we got a free t-shirt.

Disliked: This place was a disaster. Had previously e-mailed the time we would be there, which was like 2pm. When we got there we were ringing the bell for 20 minutes trying to get in. Finally let in. The person was inside the whole time doing who knows what as we were outside in the rain. Didn't take credit cards even though it said so online and there was a credit card sign inside. Also added on extra tourist fees. Would have been nice to know about that when I e-mailed them before our visit. There was a family of 5-6 staying in a room that only had 2 twin beds. This made for long lines in the 2 bathrooms. Both bathrooms have showers, but one looks more like a prison shower. The hallway was dark. It just felt super creepy.

Liked: We had a great time in Florence, the hostel was close to the train station and all the main attractions, te rooms were great, we made our reservation in a private room shared bathroom and they gave us a private bathroom without extra cost, so that was pretty nice, fast Internet and equipped kitchen, also if you don't have a laptop they have one there for you to use.

Disliked: They offered free coffee tea and cereal, but during our stance we never got cereal, the thing was always empty and no one was never around refilled it, but coffee and tea was ok

Liked: Excellent location for walking to all the main attractions in Florence, and very close to train station. Kitchen was also great as eating out every night in Florence was becoming expensive.

Disliked: Shower had mold on the ceiling, but was otherwise clean.

Liked: This property was a cheap rent (which is the only reason I would really recommend it...if you can't afford better). It has a good kitchen to cook in that is very well cleaned. The bathroom seemed clean except for the shower. Our room was nice because it had a small balcony (I believe it was the only room that had it). The check in time was very flexible.

Disliked: We never actually "checked-in" or "checked-out." We got the code for the door to get in and when we left, we put our money on the desk in the room when we left. I was a little uncomfortable with that, but it seemed to work out well. The shower was pretty gross. Seemed like they needed to deep clean the track that the sliding door was on and the ceiling definitely had a bit of mold growing. Other than that, this place was actually quite clean.

Liked: It is located in an old building, so you get to taste a bit of the local life :) Two bathrooms for all the guests could be a little busy, but you generally do not have to wait (long) as people have got different schedules and are friendly.

Disliked: The guesthouse was not well-marked, so I passed it twice before finally found it.
