Good-Size of room, window onto street, location Bad-The bed was very uncomfortable, it sagged Strange-The shower is small and the toilet and bidet is in the shower. Not bad once you get over the shock. And the breakfast was at a local busy bar. Hint for using breakfast coupon-Give the coupon to the pay counter first, then claim your pastry and coffee at the other counter.

There were no soap nor shower gel in the bathroom. We had to ask for the toilet paper every time we finish a roll. Towells and bed linen had to be changed after 3 days, according to the B&B indications, but they didn't do until we ask for it (only after the fourth day). Air conditioning was out of order, so we had to leave the windows open all the time. This implied a disaster during the nights because there were a lot of mosquitoes. Despite all of these awfulls and unpleasant things, I would emphasize the cool disposition of the reception staff. Breakfast was included in the price.

My rating is not about the Tourist House Liberty, but the Hotel Genesu, which is one floor above. I was taken by the Liberty staff to there upon my arrival. Apparently it was pre-arranged between them for me to stay there. I was unprepared, but it worked out all right. I really like their service. It was comfortable and quiet. I would use Genesu again.

It was the worst accomodation I have ever stayed at. We have been moved to a seperate apartament few streets away. I was absolutely shocked what i saw. Discusting! Smelled of urinage and canals.Everything old and broken. Noone even told us where the breakfast would be as we were moved out of the main B&B house. Never again!

We walked to the hotel from the railway station no problem. We got a free upgrade to an apartment just 2 minutes round the corner, so nice and spacious and excellent location, florence is a small city and easily crossed on foot and we felt safe walking about at night. the apartment was abit old fashioned.

No public areas, breakfast was served in he room at the time designated by guest. This loding provides accommodations to the budget traveler.

Good experience overall. The best part was the staff - they were very accommodating and kind. For example, I hurt my foot one day, and Mare was very kind, tended to and dressed my foot without question, and continued to check on me until the foot seemed to be in better condition! Another person helped me translate into English what a person was saying when my phone card was not working and offered to let me use the office phone (there aren't any phones in the rooms). Sorry, I did not catch his name, but thank you anyhow to all of the staff. The only quirky detail was that we were given a room where there was a separate bathroom - this didn't seem that strange until we discovered that the toilet and bidet were in the shower! So, when one decided to take a shower, one could not help but to make the toilet wet. This room also had very little ventilation. The last day however, we were moved to another room because there was to be some work done in the current room. The room to which they moved us was much better. There was an attached bathroom and it was 'normal' with a window. I would recommend this place to anyone who is content with a clean and basic place to stay in a safe and convenient area.

We stayed here our last night in Italy, with a 10 minute walk to the bus station the next morning to get to the airport. The room was great, loved the antique furniture. The staff were friendly and helpful, recommended a great restaurant for supper (Trattoria Za Za).

From Grace Tong - USA

this review is for a 2007 March 18-20 stay in the low season. we booked a shared bath double room for just $49 and were given one with private bath (free upgrade due to low season esp a Monday in Florence). Staff speaks adequate English and are nice to provide luggage storage for several hours on out checkout date. Did accept credit card as payment. Clean and tidy room. Furniture a bit old and some has prior damage, but does not affect the function of a hotel room and does not cause inconvenience to us. there is a safe built in inside the wall too. Minor inconvenience is the decorative "outside" wooden window keeps slamming back and forth and making noise at night but the "inside" one was locked so tightly that we can't open it to close the outside one to keep it from moving. Room was spacious (we got the room with the blue bedding, I believe it's room #4). The double bed, like all others in Italy we've seen, was made of two single beds put together side-by-side, which was fine for our standards. We also visited their shared bath once and was clean. The baths are standing showers. Since it's a hotel, not a Bed & Breakfast, no breakfast is included. The building is easy to find, but the first street to take from the SMN train station is hard to find. Better get a free APT map from the real tourist Info center OUTSIDE of the train station and ask for orientation. it's about 12-15 minutes walk with carry-on luggage from SMN train station, and about 8-10 min without luggage. But if your train arrives/departs at Campo Di station (Artesia train), it's 35-45 minute's walk away! The elevator in the building is NOT for use with Tourist House Liberty, but it's only 1 to 1.5 flight of stairs up. Convenience store/mini supermarket right downstairs and around corner. 5 minute walk to Accademia if you know the way. Duomo and other galleries are within walking distance. One window in the room overlooks nice inner garden, the other overlooks an unattended area common to

It's confortable and aboveall convenient. It's really near to the centre: you can move on foot. It's clean and spartan. The only thing not very good was the breakfast because it's all wrapped. But if you want a good italian coffee, you can request it!!! Infact, the personnel were really kind.
