The room was larger than we expected and very pleasant. The balcony was big enough for us to sit out there in the morning to eat our breakfasts and offered a decent view. The location is a bit outside the central core and there was some disruptive construction in the neighbourhood which made it a bit tricky to get to and from the B&B, but we liked the neighbourhood a lot. This is more a working area of Florence than a touristy area. The best part of our stay was the incredibly helpful staff person, who cleaned the rooms and made the breakfasts. Despite speaking almost no English she managed to alert us to the coming train strike in Italy and went out of her way to help us, saving us a lot of trouble and heartache.

This was an amazing find for Florence, if you don't mind being slightly out of the centre, there are good transport links, we did just walk in and out of the centre each day. I have never had such great communication and information about a stay before. I was sent clear pictures and videos of how to find the property, where the door was located and how to use the entry system. The apartments are secure with lift to the 5th floor. Room 504 with private terrace and sauna is a treat! The room is spacious, bright and clean. It was a separate toilet and shower a real time saver in the mornings. Full length mirror, hair dryer, plenty towels and there are sockets next to bed. There is a fridge with plenty of mini bar treats to purchase at reasonable price. The terrace and sauna are ideal and the views are incredible, wish we had another few days to have more time to enjoy. Honestly would recommend this in a heartbeat. The host was helpful in answering queries. A couple of things to note , there are alot of roadworks at the moment due to trams so you may need to walk a slightly different way. Although roadworks are outside the hotel rest assured you can't hear it from the room. Room 504 is up approx 16 steps in an L shape which are slightly narrow but enough room for a very large overpacked case. There is a lovely little café and pastry shop a few meters from the entrance with slightly warm filled croissants that we grabbed early on our last morning.

The room was spotless. Irina, the cleaning lady, spoke enough English to communicate and was the friendliest person you can meet. Breakfast was beautifully served. Two air conditioning units helped us to cool down. The building is behind closed gates that made us feel safe. It is an old building but inside evrything is as modern as possible. Parking is only hundreds of meters away in a huge garage that is open 24/7. We walked to the city centre to meet David and took a taxi back (18 euros). Also, there is a supermarket about 3 minutes walk from the house in case you need anything. If we ever go back to Florence, I am sure we check the availability to stay here again. P.S.: Irina is the best! :)

Very nice B&B with a small suite including a balcony. The standard was great and the staff was exceptionally nice and welcoming. Be aware though, it is located a bit outside. It took 20 minutes or so to walk from the train station. That means however off course it is very quiet away from the busy tourist attractions. On the same street you find a very nice busy restaurant. The breakfast in the room served on a tray was nice.

We travel as family of 3, 2 adoults and a 9-year old. We came arround 8 in the evening. In case of late check-in you need to send your passport copy to owners email. They communicate by whatsapp or booking (calling them is not an option, they direct you to whatsapp). Communication over booking is very good to, they response quickly. We read there were some issues with owners behavior-we can not say 1 bad thing about staying or attitude. And we are wery picky. The room vas wery spacious and spotles. The breakfast is served in the room (you need to mark on the menu, what you want, and leave the menu on the room door. Breakfast is delicius. Spacios room, 2 bedroom (each has a tv), 1 balcony Wi-fi works great. Parking is about 5 min away, 15€/24 hour Would definetly recomend to stay..

The B&B is located a little outside the tourist-infested center of Florence. Our room had a small balcony with a spectacular view of the hills and villas surrounding Florence. The bedroom was spacious as was the adjoining living room. No worries if you don't select the breakfast add-on (pricey); there are a number of wonderful bakeries very close by where you can sit, enjoy coffee and a pastry, and watch the locals come and go. There are at least three excellent restaurants within a short walking distance from the B&B; no need to go into the Centro Storico for dinner.

Perfect location. Perfect hostess. Perfect and loving staff, Irina. Perfect amenities. Perfect street. Second time in Firenze, both times to Lorena B&B. And as many times as I will visit Firenze again, I will always stay in Lorena B&B. Elvira, the hostess, is a clever and nice lady, and she has automated everthing. No wait to get the key card, everything in control. The rooms quite large with a remarkable nice smell. Irina, the staff, she was like a sister to us. Kind, helpful and ready to fulfill our wishes. The balcony has view to this great street. Cleaner than our houses! The bathroom... u just don;t want to get out of there. Perfect temperature all the time. Elevator always in good conditon. The breakfast made by Irina... delicious! 10 to everything!!!! Irina & Elvira... we ll see u again soon.

Great clean property! The communication and check in is so clear with photos and information you need! The response time to all my questions about restaurants, laundry etc was very fast! Comfy and soft bed and very clean. The shower was also very amazing! Great pressure and hot water.

Lovely 4 night stay at this b&b. The girl (Marina) was super helpful and couldn't do enough for us. Nice small balcony room on the fifth floor , the breakfast is delivered straight to you and we had it on the balcony with great weather...what a joy !....On a busy road and roadworks ongoing but it never bothered us . The door and window shut and the shutters down (electrically controlled) and we never heard a thing . A ten minute walk to Finnegan's (Irish pub) which served good beer and snacks. All in all a great stay and would thoroughly recommend.
