Old fashioned and depressing decor. Hard squeaky iron beds. Flimsy shower door. How the owner kept a straight face when describing the continental breakfast offered in rooms.... it was a load of the cheapest, non branded long life packaged products I have ever seen. POOR!

The Inn is very close to the train station and the concierge is a nice and helpful. The rooms are dated including the old spring mattresses, but the outer windows do a good job suppressing the street noise. The roll down shutters block the light. My bathroom wasn't good and was missing a sliding panel to the shower door and a some mold was growing on the ceiling. Even at 130 Euro for a quick one night stay to catch the train, I was expecting a little more.

Good little place
Right in front of train station, 5 minutes of walk of bus station, 5-15 minutes of walk of everything... (Uffizi museum, galleria dell academia, ponte vecchio, pretty much all major churh..) Good Window, you wont hear anything from outside. Everything is perfect, but i like smooth matress and this one was really hard. Since everyone has its own preference about this, i still give 5* , really nice place near everything!

Florence find
I brought a tour group of women with me and we all agreed that the rooms were large, comfortable, clean and safe. Check in was great, breakfast, although different and a little disappointing after what we had experienced, was adequate for a couple of days and location near the train station was great. Would recommend for short stays definitely.

Florence is always lovely and so was this hotel
We were so glad that we booked at the Old Florence Inn. It was an easy walk from the train station. The street was busy but the rooms are on an upper level with sound diminishing windows. There’s an elevator. The room was spacious with a balcony. A nice breakfast tray was provided. Also, an anytime coffee maker in the lounge
