5This B&B has many great features, the main one is its _location_. It is right in the centre of Firenze and only blocks away from most major sites (Duomo, Uffizi, Accademia, Piazza della Signoria, Ponte Vecchio, etc.
The room we had was _massive_ - two good sized rooms could have fit in the one room. Bathroom was more typically sized for Europe (i.e. small compared to Canada or USA). Both rooms were very clean.
_Breakfast_ was served in the entrance hall/ room and was good. It included coffee/ tea, baked goods, cereals, etc. (no meat or eggs that I recall but certainly there was enough to fill us both).
_Staff_ were very friendly, helpful and available.
_Wireless internet_ worked great and was very handy.
PS - we really enjoyed grabbing a quick bite and glass of wine at the nearby "I Fratelli" (sp?) "restaurant" nearby - check it out it you walk by (~ 1-2 blocks away).
Finally, we maximized our time by visiting the Duomo early (8:30am) and the Accademia late (~ 1 hr before closing there was no line up (Oct.) and thus no need for a reservation).
