Everything about this place was good except for the internet. To get a stable connection, you had to sit in the kitchen or go outside your room, which was a bit inconvenient. One thing to note: hotels in Italy typically do not provide hair conditioner. They usually only offer two small bottles of shampoo and two very small bars of soap, so be sure to bring your own hair products.

This was an absolutely delightful place to stay during our time in Florence. We loved the spacious rooms, the location, and the beautiful backyard space where we ate apricots on our final morning. Simone is super helpful, and I appreciated everything about this place. The only thing that could be improved is the Wi-Fi, which only worked at random times and not really in our room. But we weren’t in Florence to stay in our room, so it gave us a great motivation to get out and explore the city!

Old pipes meant the toilet wasn’t able to tolerate any paper. This caused some difficulties. Although a great location we’d consider another place to stay in future due to this.

- Average The bathroom floor was in bad condition and had a leak. I used a towel on the floor; otherwise, one cannot walk. Also, the shower door needs a fix. The window needs a curtain. The window is low, so it has a clear view from the outside. The rooms were clean, and the condition was good. The location is perfect, close to most attractions, with excellent restaurants/ food and needs. Outside, the room has a small yard which was perfect for having tea/coffee

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our stay at Cosy House in Florence was disappointing and did not reflect the glowing reviews or awards listed in the property description. The 5-star rating and “best hotel” booking awards are from over five years ago and unfortunately do not represent the current condition of the rooms. While the room appeared clean at first glance, there were several issues that affected our experience. The towel warmer and hair dryer didn’t work. The Wi-Fi signal didn’t reach the rooms, which was inconvenient. The garden, which was advertised as a nice feature, was completely overgrown and unusable. The curtains were dusty, the floors hadn’t been properly cleaned, and the bathroom showed visible signs of mold. We were really looking forward to our time in Florence, but the condition of the space made it difficult to relax and enjoy the stay. I hope the host updates the listing to better reflect the reality of the accommodation and addresses these issues for future guests.

Friendly owner but the rest needs work

When we arrived at the check-in time listed on Hotels.com, no one was there. A phone number was listed but we didn’t have international calling. My internet was acting up so my husband went in search of a pay phone and it took about 30 minutes for us to get in, which was frustrating on a hot day. They had messaged us that morning asking when we were arriving but I didn’t see the email until later. However, Simone was very pleasant to deal with and an accommodating host. A few other issues: we ran out of toilet paper as no one replenished the stock during our stay and we had to search the entire area to finally find some in the kitchen, there was a bad sewer smell in the bathroom and the sheets had a nasty stain when we arrived.

Posizione ideale vicino al centro e alla stazione ma in una via tranquilla. Buone le dotazioni della casa: dispone di un’area comune con caffé, tisane, microonde, oltre a prodotti per l’igiene e caricatori per cellulare (un plus molto apprezzato). Simone molto gentile e disponibile; buona anche la colazione in un bar vicino. La camera era molto essenziale ma pulita. Nota negativa: nessuna insonorizzazione; era come avere i vicini nella stessa stanza, inoltre servirebbe almeno una tenda oscurante davanti alla porta di ingresso a vetri per privacy e per non essere svegliati appena sorge il sole. In generale la consiglierei più per coppie o gruppi di amici, piuttosto che per famiglie.

Abbiamo soggiornato per una notte. La stanza aveva tutti i comfort necessari: un letto e cuscini comodi, una scrivania con tv, un salottino, doccia, phon, minifrigo. Consiglieremmo una maggiore attenzione alla pulizia degli oggetti accessori (come la lampada un po' impolverata). Ma in linea generale è stata un'esperienza positiva con la simpatia e la gentilezza del proprietario. La colazione in un bar a pochi metri è stata con una bevanda calda e una brioche buone.
