Reviews of Strange Uncle B&B

Location, host is nice and attentive.

Noisy next door occupants waking us up 1.30 and 4.30 in the morning.while trying to open their door. Brutal.

Beds were super comfy, loved having a fully equipped kitchen & fantastic proximity to key points of interest. Hosts were very responsive and check-in & out was a breeze! I appreciated having the photo of the door to help recognize that we were in the right spot upon arrival.

While we appreciated having a private bathroom, it was detached & down the hall from our room & only accessible with a key (or to be left unlocked?)

Location and clean

Loved staying here! The place definitely exceeded our expectations. Great location, cute apartment that has everything you might need and very nice hosts. We booked a room with a private bathroom and had 2 lovely nights in the Strange Uncle. We loved our very cozy bedroom with a comfortable bed and absolutely enjoyed the nice trumpet lamps made by the owners, the cute small table with a coffee maker and the spacious modern bathroom. We also had breakfast in the shared kitchen and it was delightful. Also met the hosts - a very nice and smiley couple. Will book again if we return to Florence for sure. Definitely recommend!

Location was great, close to San Lorenzo & only ~10 minutes or so from the train station. There is a small, basic kitchen, so you could make a cup of tea or breakfast. Also bottles of cold water in the fridge. The instructions to access the apartment (codes etc) & rooms were very straight forward too.

Wasn't sure where to put the recycling (mostly paper).

Great location to explore Florence, the room has everything you need and the bed is comfortable.

Nothing!

it was in such a great location and the decor of the property was done so well!! A private bathroom and the well ventilated room was very nice!

The bed could have been a bit softer..and weren’t many staff around that often but apart from that!

The location was very good! Close to the Duomo but far enough away so it was quiet. The AC worked well and it was nice to have the ensuite bathroom.

This B&B is not staffed. Everything is done through messages and automated pin pads/locks. When I stay at B&Bs, I think part of the experience is to meet the owners and gain local knowledge from them.

The original place which we booked is on renovation, so the staff arranged us a stay in another nice hotel. It was really comfortable and we had a lounge outside where we can have tea or coffee.

We wasn't aware we were given a total different hotel. We lost our way as the staff didn't inform us the building name. There were 2 types of block numbers which is very confusing. It was rainy, and we had to keep calling the staff to tell us the way. It took us an hour to find the place, which isn't convenient.

The location was perfect, we were centrally located and got to check out all the different things in Florence that we wanted to see. Almost everything was a quick walk away. Bred and Nadja were very accommodating and made our stay very comfortable.

The location

The facilities..not so comfortable to share the bathroom.The toilet was not no easy to use

walking distance to the city center

Great location, close to Piazza San Giovanni. Clean place and had a pod coffe maker which was a plus.

There is construction going on at the main floor so there is construction dust all over the stairs and wasn’t able to use the handrails which made difficult to bring luggage upstairs. Power outlets need changing, when conecting converters they were loose.

The apartment is really nice, perfect location, clean, and the host is so friendly and welcoming.

Location is perfect. Very central and you have walking access to everything in Florence.

Pretty noisy at night. But they provide earplugs.

Location is great!

We need to share toilet and the flash doesn’t work well for the 2nd day we stayed. I understand this building itself is 300years old but the toilet should be up running. Apart from that, everything else is great!

Good location, fast response from hosts, a room with theme, good kitchen

Unbearable noise from the streets at 6AM and 11PM (even with ear plugs), toilet not very clean and the flush doesn’t work properly

Bred and Nadja were so welcoming and helpful. They told us where we could find the Laundermat, supermarket, etc.

No lifts for our luggage.
