Host, location, host, comfortable room, host! We had a wonderful 3 nights in Florence with Eliana as our host. While the room is basic, but comfortable our stay was a delight - we enjoyed Eliana’s cooking in the evenings and mornings, and conversations with her and her husband. The location is steps away from the 15 minute tram into Florence (which also connects to the airport) which made it a haven away from the crowds (even in mid May) in Florence. Eliana also provided secure parking close by. However, there is not much in the way of cafes, bars or restaurants in the immediate area.

Nothing.

We chose B & B Eliana because of its proximity to the airport and an early morning flight. It takes about 10 min to get to the airport by tram, or if you're like us and have a lot of bags, an affordable shuttle can be arranged. We also had a tasty home cooked meal in the garden, and Eliana packed us a breakfast to go for the morning due to the early time of our departure. Communication with Eliana was excellent from the time of booking to saying goodnight before we left. Overall this stay was exactly what we were looking for. I only wish I realized how easy it was to take the tram into Florence, we would have arrived earlier and spent the day exploring.

We have no big complaints. The bathroom is not large, which may be an issue for some people. Our room also faced the tram tracks, but it didn't bother us since we had the windows closed and air conditioning on.

The location is ideal for those who want to stay near the Peretola airport, only a 10 minute drive. It is not clear the property is a B and B, but once you get in it is clear that it is a small but well-run establishment. The room and bathroom facilities were spotless and comfortable. The owner and host Eliana was very cordial and helpful. As I was traveling under pressure, I failed to note that I needed to reserve a lunch for the day I arrived. Eliana was more than accommodating, preparing me a great homemade lunch of tagliatelle with sugo, wine, water, bread, a delicious fresh salad, all in abundance, in a very sweet and small garden right next to the property. She was so kind as to help me with my heavy luggage as well as arrange for a driver for me at 3:45 am for a 6 am flight. Moreover, as I was confused as to how to let myself out, out of which locked door, early in the am, I had to call her, and she very graciously came to show me how to get out. I was very grateful for her kind and warm attention to me. I hope I get a chance to return!

A great choice. Simple rooms, but spacious (including spacious bathrooms), clean, convenient, decorated with many loving touches (and really nice bed linens!). And Eleana is GREAT and truly loves being a host. (She's also a terrific cook, so if she asks if you would like her to prepare dinner for you (NOT included in room rate), say "Yes!.") Only a 90 sec. walk from the T2 tram stop – on one end is the airport terminal building, the other end is the main railway station in central Florence. Eleana's place is great (1) if you have an early flight - as we did – or arrive late; (2) you have only two nights in Florence – don't go to all the effort of moving into central Florence just to have to turn around two mornings later; and (3) if you have a longer job assignment that's anywhere along the T2 tram line or something at the nearby university, Eleana's would make a perfect home-away-from-home in Florence.

Can't think of a thing.

Eliana is a great host.- the best! Very joyfully and accommodating. Good Italian breakfast. Upon request, Eliana will make scrambled eggs. Her B&B, in north Florence, is right next to Tram 2 and a 15-minute ride into city center. Airport is 2 tram stops away. We arrived via rental car. Eliana was waiting for us at small pull off across from B&B. Helped us with our luggage Upon arrival and departure. Warm send off. Really enjoyed our stay in Florence, Staying with Elliana made it extra special! 😀

We loved the outdoor space where we could relax and enjoy some wine on our last night in Italy after 2 weeks of traveling. Eliana was an excellent host. She scheduled a time that worked for us for breakfast the next morning. We woke up to fresh fruits, yogurt, bread, cheese & meats, pastries, and wonderful coffee. We were just about 10 minutes from the airport, so there was no stress about getting stuck in traffic! One of my favorite accommodations!

The location was a bit hard to find after taking the tram and getting off a couple of blocks away. Eliana was so helpful; she came out to the sidewalk to find us and help with our luggage.

Eliana was a wonderful hostess. Outgoing and friendly, she catered to our every wish. Rooms were clean, breakfast was good and she made our optional dinners (extra charge but reasonable, large and tasty) from scratch. We had booked because of close proximity to airport and ability to use the T2 tram for getting around Florence (we didn't rent a car). Only one block from the second tram stop from airport, location was very convenient and while adjacent to the the tracks, quiet rooms. As a bonus, Eliana generously offered to drive us to the airport on the morning of our departure. Grazie Eliana.

Eliana and her daughter were incredibly gracious and kind! Eliana consistently went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable. Her home-cooked food was phenomenal and the atmosphere was so relaxing! The B&B is located very close to the Firenze airport and less than a block from the public transit electric train line that travels from the airport all the way past the city center of Firenze. The rooms was cozy and comfortable. Oh, and unlike a lot of private locations in Italy, the A/C worked great!

Honestly, my wife and I can't think of a single thing we didn't like. It is easy to see that Eliana loves having guests and works tirelessly to make sure all of her guests have a great experience.

Eliana was an absolute doll! She had our room ready early and was so friendly and helpful. I was lucky enough to meet her little furbaby, Nikita, too :) We had an 6:30AM flight and Eliana was so kind to take us to the airport. The B&B is right off the T2 tram line and is very easy to find. The T2 will take you into the heart of Florence as well - it stops right at Santa Maria Novella. We didn't have an opportunity to try any food items, but I'm positive it would have been delicious! Thank you, Eliana!!

Eliana is amazing! Very warm, wonderful host. Great communication through the website and whats app- super responsive. Also an excellent cook! We chose to have dinner here( so glad we did- it was super). and wonderful included breakfast the next am. Very helpful in arranging shuttle to airport for us too Stay here if you want to get to know a local and learn more about Florence. She is very engaging and fun to talk with. Loved meeting her family and dog too! We stayed overnight before an airplane flight. Location is perfect for this. Otherwise the neighborhood, is not much for a tourist ( though we had no real time to explore). Was a little hard to find- just a door on a busy tramline street.It is directly on the tram line, so could be a good location if willing to tram in and out of center of Florence ( I think would be 20-30 min tram ride). Room was on the smaller side - would be great for family with younger kids ( we were with adult kids) not much room for luggage for 4 of us. Beds were comfortable. Air conditioning was great. Very clean. New bathroom. Cute decor. Not as loud as I would have thought being on the tram line. Definitely recommend

Nothing. Room is smaller, if trying to fit 4, but not much can be done about this. Again great for couple or for family with smaller kids.
