A budget-friendly stay
A well-located property within walking distance of the city centre. Adequate facilities for food and drink preparation. The room was fine, although the the shower head and shower doors were on their last legs. Fine for a budget-friendly trip.

it's located not too far away from the train station (around 15mins walk). The area around the building is tidy so you feel safe. Need a bit walking to the attractions to the south east of the station but it's acceptable. The room itself is very spacious, with high ceilingm very tidy and clean. And my room is on the top floor so it's generally quiet at the night despite it's close to the main road. David is the host and he is super friendly, before and during the days I stayed there I had a few questions and he always responded quickly. The only 1 thing I can think of could be improved is the supply of the daily necessities, such as bottle of water, plastic/paper cup, disposable slipper, etc. But other than that this is a nice place to stay.

Es práctico, tiene cocina para desayunar. Habitación luminosa y tranquila, el baño muy cómodo y espacioso.
A dos estaciones de la terminal del tren y con varias líneas de transporte.
Tener en cuenta que no tienen ascensor y se encuentra en el segundo piso.

Hotel Leone Guest House is really an air BNB or youth hostel but without the breakfast. Rooms are run down with peeling paint and plaster, electrical outlets appear to do nothing leaving you mystified as to whether you’ve switched something on or off you shouldn’t. No in room fridge so you use the communal fridge only to find someone helped themselves to you stuff. Big brother (your remote landlord) won’t switch on the AC unless you ask so make sure you have SMS or their WhatsApp number. Not recommended.

When you use the water (flush toilet/use the sink) there is a very loud noise. Other than that, it was great!

This was the perfect location so close to the Spanish steps. It truly was easy to get around, a bit of walking but great. We did have a street car in the front so it was a little noisy at times.
We were close to a lot of dining options.

It was a good 20-30 walk to main sights. But there are many restaurants and grocery stores along the way. There was only one pillow each we like 2. There were mosquitoes in room at night keeping us awake. We think from an open window in kitchen. They said had to stay open. The kitchen was very handy with microwave, fridge,sink and kettle.

Pros:
Walking distance to Duoma and food locations.
Owner was quick to respond.
Cons:
Traffic noise in the night. Mosquitoes in the night as there were garbage bins below the building. No lift, so have to climb 2 stories every time, particularly with luggage. No remote control for Air-condition in the room due to some city regulation-have to message the owner to turn on or off the aircondition.

The price paid at the appartment was more than what was announced on the Expedia site. There was a bad smell in the apartment on the check-in day. There was no elevator, had to go up two floors with all the luggages ! The shower head was rusty. The soap that was provided was not great. The housekeeper was very nice.

Nice roome but a bit hot during the night.
The room was nice with big ceilings and a nice bed. The bathroom was small but usable. The room was really hot during the night because we can't have the AC running long in Florence and is controlled by the owner that you have to contact. The location is fine but you will have to walk at least 15 min to be in the touristic area.

The guest house is in a quiet neighbourhood of Florence only 5 mins away from a tram stop and only 15 minutes walk from the Duomo and the train station.
The accomodation was fine apart from the bathroom .
The shower door was hanging off which could easily have been fixed with a screw in 5 minutes and little packets of shower gel and shampoo ( not very enviromentally friendly)were provided.
Davide was very welcoming on arrival when taking your money but i was disappointed by a rude message i received as i was 20 mins late on check out.
( I had been to a view point and could not get a taxi so had to walk/run)
Overall ,ok place for the money but do not be late on check out
