Great stay, walkable to the city and took the city bus a few times. Easy to navigate. Many places to eat nearby. Marco was great, accommodating as well. I traveled with two young kids, it worked well for them as well.

Thank you Marco for your hospitality and all the tips. Your place was very convenient to reach all places without being in the big hassle and bustle. Loved the bakery items.

Lovely location away from the main tourist area, but only a 10-minute walk to Ponte Vecchio. Host was very helpful with recommendations and information. Great B&B for the price! Would 100% return.

The efficiency apartment was in a safe location near the train station and bus transportation. You could also walk (25 minutes) to the center of Florence or other sites. The breakfast from the nearby cafe (two pastries and coffee/water) was available at 6:30 and was delicious! The room was clean and neat and roomy. (It could use some TLC). Really liked (and used) the kitchenette and a fridge! I would definitely and highly recommend this bnb.

It was a very enjoyable stay at 'Affittacamere Porta San Frediano' because we had access to many facilities such as bars, restaurants, transportation, and even a supermarket. The owner was very kind, and I was extremely satisfied with his service. As for the room, everything was enjoyable, and we even had a balcony, but it could be cleaner. For the rest, a great deal.

matthias

The accommodation is centrally located in Florence, very quiet and with a spacious, clean room and bathroom. The possibility to cook something in a communal kitchen is very useful. We were greeted and bid farewell in a friendly manner. The simple breakfast in a cafe is typically Italian. The value for money is good. We would come back anytime.

stayed from 08/27/2017 to 09/01/2017

The answer from the host:
Hallo, Ich bin froh, dass du dich in meinem B&B gefunden hast. Ich hoffe, meine Gäste in der Zukunft wieder zu haben. Ich wünsche dir einen schönen Tag. Ciao, Marco.

juan

Marco is a charm, he explains everything very well, he is a short walk from the center, you can walk there without any problem. The breakfast is typically Italian, two pastries and coffee. For me, it is nothing out of the ordinary, but the pastries are good. I recommend the Affittacamere Porta San Frediano if I return to Florence, I repeat.

stayed from 09/29/2024 to 10/02/2024

cristina

The accommodation is well located to reach the center in 20 minutes. It is a bit old-fashioned but clean and functional. The owner is very friendly, had no problem with us arriving late. He informed us very well about everything we asked. It's a pleasure to meet people like him. Breakfast is 2 minutes away. They offer homemade sweets and also provide the option of savory. I would definitely recommend it.

stayed from 09/02/2023 to 09/06/2023

The place is perfect. The room is spacious and with a very good bathroom, air conditioning - essential because we had 40 degrees of heat - the manager's attention is very good and the breakfast is perfect.

Excellent structure, clean and welcoming! The center of Florence is about a kilometer away, but easily reachable with a walk. The owner, Marco, is an excellent host. The breakfast served in the pastry shop in front is excellent and plentiful. If we were to return to Florence, we would definitely choose this place again. Thank you.

alessia

The room was not the one shown in the picture with a loft but much smaller because it was not available. Dirty common balcony, broken shutter that did not close, no room cleaning/bed remaking between one night and the next and no towel change. For two nights it was fine for us because ultimately it had a very good location very close to the center, the owner was kind and available for any information needed, the breakfast was good in the pastry shop in front. Perhaps a bit expensive in terms of value for money, but for touring and seeing the city for 2 or 3 days it's more than fine.

ivan

Great structure. The manager is very kind and friendly. He provided us with very useful tips for our visit to Florence. The location is convenient considering the price offered. The only flaw, unfortunately very evident and uncomfortable, was the lack of cleanliness in the room and, especially, in the kitchen. It was impossible to cook there. Apart from that, we had a great time.

Structure located in the San Frediano district about 20 minutes walk from the center. The neighborhood is full of restaurants, bars, small craft shops, antique shops and art galleries, despite this the location is peaceful. Abundant breakfast served in the bar very close to the property. Marco, the manager, is kind, friendly and helpful with useful advice. Very satisfied. Excellent value for money.

fausto

After having done some research on the internet and stayed at the Affittacamere Porta San Frediano, I must say I made an excellent choice. Away from the chaos but very close to various points, economical, and with the possibility to cook. What else to say? One negative thing? The lack of a bidet.

stayed from 08/24/2022 to 08/25/2022

Marco was very helpful and showed us what to visit, where to eat. From the structure, you can walk to the city center in 20 minutes, very convenient. Clean room equipped with a kitchenette with fridge, stove, sink, cutlery, dish drainer, and table. We will definitely come back.

Ciao Annalisa, sono felice che vi siete trovati bene nel mio B&B. Spero di avervi nuovamente miei ospiti in futuro. Cordiali saluti Marco.

chiara

Located in the borgo San Frediano, beautiful neighborhood full of bars, restaurants, wine bars, and artisan shops. The center of Florence is very easy to reach. Marco is very kind and helpful in meeting us both for check-in and check-out. We were greeted by his parents, wonderful, kind, and very friendly, they made us laugh a lot and showed us the best itineraries to visit Florence. The Affittacamere Porta San Frediano is clean and tidy, equipped with everything. Delicious breakfast in the pastry shop in front of the building. Thank you for the hospitality, we will definitely come back.

giancarlo

Mr. Marco was extremely kind, he waited for us upon arrival and also gave us good advice on what to see in Florence and where to eat traditional foods with an excellent quality/price ratio. Excellent breakfast. The location of the property allowed us to discover and experience a part of Florence that is perhaps less touristy but more authentic. On the day of departure, we were able to leave our luggage in storage until the afternoon, free of charge. In conclusion, a structure definitely worth recommending and a thank you to Mr. Marco.

The room is perfect for a couple who want to spend a few days in peace in Florence. You must be willing to walk a bit to reach the center, but this is also a plus: it gives you the opportunity to explore an area outside the chaos of the more central streets or closer to the station.

Structure located in a historic house, well maintained, well served by public transport, close to the historic center. Ideal point as a base for excursions also to other important Tuscan cities such as Siena, Pisa, San Gimignano etc. Paid parking for cars in the immediate vicinity, agreed with the structure. The manager Mr. Marco is a very cordial person and attentive to the needs of customers. We were happy with the stay, thank you.

Located in a historic building in the characteristic San Frediano district, 10 minutes on foot from Ponte Vecchio and 50 meters from the 6B bus stop that will take you to the city center in the blink of an eye. The strong point of the structure is the "great" Marco, the manager of the B&B, who will instruct you on how to visit, where to eat, and anything you need to know about Florence and its surroundings. I recommend getting the Florence Card, which will allow you to experience the city in a different way by avoiding queues at museums and not having to keep your wallet always in hand for the various tickets. Breakfast at the bar downstairs with delicious freshly baked pastries accompanied by cappuccino or coffee. We spent four unforgettable nights. Goodbye Marco!

I returned yesterday from a weekend in Florence with my husband and my son, and I stayed in this comfortable B&B where the owner, Marco, was kind and helpful. He waited for us because our flight was significantly delayed. He provided us with a map of the city and useful information for our stay. Definitely recommended for cleanliness and value for money.
