Also, since the location is very central it was quite noisy at night, especially if you're given a room on the front. Bring ear plugs. Other than that, it was a lovely big room with a chess board. About 30 seconds walk to Palazzo Vecchio, another minute to the Uffizi.close

very nice, clean, good location. only complaint was that the staff was never available. no one was sitting at the reception area, and you had to buzz to get any service at all, which was frustrating. not a hostel to go to if you are looking for a wild time, but very nice and in a great location....

Perfect for our needs as three travlers in their mid twenties. We had a private 3 bedroom with a bathromm ensuite and everything was clean and functional. We'd stayed at a hotel across town previously and this hostel was just as nice and cheaper.

The sign for the hostel is no bigger than an index card and doesn't even have the right name on it. The room we stayed in was very large and so was the bathroom. It had a lot of character and right down the street from the Uffizi, Market Nuovo, and you can see Piazza della Signoria when you walk out the door. The only problems were the staff and the outside noise.close

The only thing I didntt like was the shower. No pressure & you have to have it all the way up to get hot water (not really a biggie). The room we stayed was HUGE! I felt like I was staying in my own apartment.close
