Little Garden Donatello

Florence

The apartment is great. The only downside is its inconvenient location. 30 minutes walk to the city center. Not many public transportation options.

Inconvenient location

Great Place, Great Location, Host had great communication and was easy to get a hold of with any questions

Great Place close to the right spots.

Little Garden Donatello is a very charming apartment/ hotel with only 3 units. I went with a friend and it was the perfect size to share and for each to have their own separate space at the end of a busy day; very important for two introverts sightseeing in crowded tourist areas in Italy!The unit has a separate bedroom and a daybed in the kitchen area. The atmosphere in the unit is very classical - very high ceilings, statues in the building and garden, modern bathroom with nice shower, nice toilet (important if you are not from Europe and not used to some of the toilet configurations found in Europe) and bidet. The fully stocked kitchen allowed us to make some meals especially after long days out.The location was perfect. Cross the Main Street in front and 1.5-2 km walking got you to most of the historical sights and train station.We were in the non-tourist area.  If you like to experience a place as the locals do, this location is close to grocery stores (coop), local restaurants that don’t charge exorbitant prices, laundry.The drawbacks: beds and pillows are very firm. It would be good to offer some additional pillow firmness for anyone that prefers a softer experience. Mosquitos can be an issue if, as in our case, one of us was very allergic and got lots of bites and the other had virtually nothing! Bring bug spray. This is important advice for anywhere in Italy.Overall, the location and facilities make this a place I would recommend.

Nice place at the edge of the centre, about 15 minutes walk to the cathedral. Private cooking and coffee making facilities and a pleasant shared outdoor area (only 2 or 3 other rooms). Next to a road which didn't affect our sleep but may do if you're a light sleeper. Owners were particularly helpful when we struggled to book a taxi.

Great option for a city break in Florence

They gave us the appt next to the street and there was quite a lot of noise of the street. We paid more than 100 euros per night but we didn’t have coffee, not enough soap for the nights that we were staying. They didn’t have basics things for the kitchen and there were many ants. So too expensive for what it is!!

Too expensive for what they offer

I can't stress how wonderful our stay was here. We stayed on the lower floor and we were just blown away by how amazing the place was. We felt like we were truly Italian staying in Florence in our own home. Sounds ridiculous I know but we did.  The little shared garden is lovely for a glass of wine and a chill before setting off in the evening for a stroll. It was in average a 15 minute walk to the Centre which suited us to be away from a very busy Florence. Please check your emails before arriving. I didn't. It's so the hosts mum or dad can let you in! We hit lucky that we've arrived at the same time as another couple who had replied to the email. That was my fault as I was saving my data while being abroad. The dad was so lovely but limited English but this just added to the feel of being in Italy. When leaving, again let them know by text when u are so it can be arranged to check out. The hosts mum checked us out and she's adorable. It's beyond 5 stars. We had such a wonderful stay. The only thing I'd say is bring some mosquitoes repellant if you are prone to bites as there seemed to be quite a few flying around. We were both badly bitten. It can't be helped I know. Thank you so much for letting us stay. We hope to be back very soon. It's amazing. The photos on the website do not do the rooms justice. It's stunning.

Wonderful stay in Florence 5 stars

The staffs were not helpful (ask money for towel changes, no cleaning during 9 days staying!!!), tied on their own schedule, you must follow them, no exception or excuse!!

Place on a very busy street

Although we had a hard time finding this hotel from the station, It is a good 20 minute walk if you know where you are going. We were delighted when we eventually got there. We had the upstairs suite for 3 people, very spacious & very clean, nice antique furniture/high ceilings & modern bathroom. Kitchen with table/microwave/ hob & fridge. It also has a nice garden to sit out in the evening with a glass of wine. Staff were very nice, limited English,  A nice walk to center is approx 15 mins. The key to front door caused a problem but if you turn it 4 times it works. We got the bus around the corner back to station which is a 5 minute walk to bus stop. Would recommend & would stay again.
