Wonderful

This was the best stay that we had in all of our travels through Europe. The room was spacious, clean and cool. The host was amazing every morning he would cook for us, Whatever we wanted for breakfast. He helped us guide our way through the city helped us find the easiest ways back-and-forth and every day would give us advice. It was a wonderful stay and we were able to check in at 1:30 in the morning. He catered to every need! I would definitely stay there again!
The manager very personable and gave out clear and precise instructions on getting around, this made traveling through very easy, also helped with getting luggage up steps. No elevator about 12 steps to get
From the time I arrived, Marzio was extremely helpful and accommodating. He went out of his way to make sure I could get settled in. Marzio was always friendly and seemed to extend his hospitality to all guests with anything they needed. There was a nice breakfast spread and I believe dinner is available if you request it. The room was clean, cool and comfortable (necessary for hot, summer days!) The location is a little ways from the city center but accessible by a local bus or walking down the hill. All in all, i am glad I chose GG for my stay in Firenze!
Extraordinary. Felt like a little slice of home. Staff treated everyone like family. Clean, quiet, relaxing and very easy to get in and out of the city.
Thank you xx
i loved the staff there. they were so welcoming and eager to help even with a language barrier! all of their amenities that was listed was actually true! the best place i have visited thus far in italy
Excellente service, very kind people, super hapy , I would only fix one very important thing , the A.C . Service is great, food is very good for a good price and the hospitality of the owner it is amazing.
Conviniently located to bus line to center. Breakfast offered for 8Euros. room was good size.Property charged for parking during check-in and did not notify that we needed to get from them a touchless key to activate the gate.
We were not able to leave when we needed to. Property did not reply to communications sent; therefore, we had to wait until business hours to get our car and leave. Everything else was fine. It was a good place to stay.
Lovely staff, clean room with lots of space. You can hear your noisy neighbours so depending on who is staying may impact your sleep. Location is far from downtown but an easy bus ride and nice local restaurants.
We had a large spacious studio like room for 4 people. The bathroom was updated with a nice shower. This property is outside the city center but close to multiple bus lines. Breakfast was decent. The staff was friendly.

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was very clean. We had a comfortable stay. Would recommend.
It was about a 20 to 30 minute walk to Old City Wall. Much longer to walk back as it is uphill. A taxi back was approximately 30 euros.
Our room was small but clean. The Manager was helpful for directions etc.

It's just ok but stairs is hard and people not very helpful.. We arrive without any information, like gate code and etc... I'm glad one of the guest help us to go inside.. But no one reply or help us, when we are calling.
Its hard to go inside if there's a miscommunications.... No one will help you from the facility... I'm not going back
