Foresteria Valdese di Firenze - Casa per Ferie
Room was very dated, old and cold. Shower seemed particularly dirty and the water was cold. Of the 9 hotels we have stayed in on our travels thus far this was the only 3 star that on this site rated 4.4. Good location. Lovely staff. Wouldn’t stay again.

Palazzo Oliveto
The room was not that clean, there was mold on the shower, there were some stains on the wall. The higienic part of the overall room is the reason why I give 2.
