Federico was super friendly in person and had a lot of great restaurant suggestions. I actually happened to be the only guest at the time, so I had the whole place to myself. The room itself was very beautiful and better than the pictures. The AC worked well at night. Despite being on a busy street, the bedroom faces away and is super quiet. The location is very convenient, especially if you travel by train and want to see the center of town. I was able to do a day trip to Pisa really easily. There was some sort of construction going on overhead so that got a bit noisy in the morning sometimes.

Owners were very accommodating. Very spacious and made us feel like it was our own in Firenze. Close to the train and bus station. It was a fair hike up the many stairs (no elevator) with or without heavy luggage. Not for the faint of physicality. As long as we are in good shape, we would do it again.
-
the location was good next to the station and 10 min walk from the city center. Frederico was fantastic receiving us in a warm and friendly way and with a lot of suggestions the apartment is on the 3rd floor without elevator; and on the kitchen we miss some tools to make soup - but Frederico told us he will provide them for next clients :)

Great location close to the train station and museums. Excellent host who went above and beyond to make our trip comfortable. Nothing to dislike.

We had a wonderful stay at the Blacksheep B&B in Florence. The location is absolutely perfect—just steps from the train station and within easy walking distance to almost all major attractions, which made our trip incredibly convenient. What truly made this stay special, however, was the kindness and generosity of the host. On our departure day, since we had a late evening train and no new guests arriving, he graciously allowed us to keep the room until nearly 8 PM instead of just storing our luggage. This meant so much to us and made the end of our trip completely stress-free. The bed was comfortable, room was clean and well maintained. The stairs are manageable, make me feel we live there rather than just visit. Highly recommend!

I personally missed the actual door of the B and B only because the number 53 is located higher up on the wall than the normal area of the other numbers.
-
Excellent location only few minutes walk away from the central train station. Also 10-15mins from town centre and most major attractions. Extremely helpful and host who also gave recommendations for places to eat! Excellent facilities in the common room. Clean and spacious room with high quality amenities. Would definitely return again. Not an issue for me but accommodation is located on third floor which is only available via stairs.
-
Federico was so accommodating, welcomed us with open arms, had a lovely clean room and gave us everything we needed for our stay in the kitchen. He helped with our bags and was always available for help if we needed it.

Excellent staff. Very relaxing. Will stay again for our next trip. Great location
-
Amazing host! He brought us breakfast most days and was genuinely fun to talk to and had great recommendations. Fantastic location 5 min walking distance to the main train station. Room was huge with a large bathroom and double vanity
-
Breakfast was excellent. We had fresh bread, pastries, eggs, cheese, ham, yogurts, juices, coffee from Nespresso machine every day. The host was exemplary in his hospitality and gave us many helpful avdices about the restraunts and sightseeing places. The flat is located in a busy neighbourhood with many cafes and restaurants nearby, very close to main train terminal but is very quiet at the same time. I can't think of anything negative.
-
Spacious room with fun decor. The host was very nice and accommodating, giving us lots of recs for Florence. There was also a nice breakfast and even snacks for through the day. It’s also very close to the train station which was super convenient.
-
Large and roomy. Totally separate sleeping areas. Kitchen with coffee, juices, croissants etc. very pleasant, informative and helpful Federico. All good and very handy to trains and walking distance from all sites
-
Federico is reliable and kind, he will take care of you from the arrival to the departure carrying luggage to upstairs and down. Very easy access after the train station in a 5 minutes. Some difficulties were with AC in the night time because of the old construction of the building. However the location was very good for easy and short access to the historical centre. Around the corner there was Express Carfur where you can buy any food you prefer for your breakfast if the Italian breakfast is not yours. the kitchen of b&b was accessable 24 hours. B&B was spotless . many stairs to access up.
-
The property was rather big. Eventhough we are a family with 4 people, we did not use some part of the house. It is also very clean and has lots of kitchen appliances. The location of the house is really amazing, 1 minute from central train station.Federico was so kind and welcomed us with fresh croissan at check-in. Strongly remcommed it to stay there. Nothing
-
Loved the beds and the bath. Enjoyed the closeness of the train station and market. Wished he living room had been a bit larger and also wished there had been a dryer to dry my wet clothes. Great facility! Couch could have been more modern without a cover and the stools were difficult to sit in. Breakfast food wasn’t fresh
-
Excellent location, fantastic host. Wonderful place to stay in Florence as a solo traveller.
-
location was excellent and the host was exceptional The only thing for people with heavy bags is the walk up to the 3rd floor, no lift. But then this is quite normal in old buildings in the centre of Florence
-
Our host was very friendly and nice. He was very responsive to things but does not live near the property so if something occurs he has quite a drive to get there. The bathroom was large and beautifully decorated. He offered very lovely pastries & juice for the morning and gave great suggestions on places to go to in Florence. We were there in the hot summer in July for 2 nights. We had a large room but the A/C only worked in one part of the room. It did not reach the room w/the single bed so it was very hot and hard to sleep. The common area where the kitchen and seating area is is also not air conditioned so it was not a place to linger but is a very nice space. The drain in our shower was clogged and water overflowed all over the bathroom. Our host did address it as quickly as he could after reporting this but it was an inconvenience to not be able to shower that morning before touring the city due to the heat.

Everything! The location, the property design and vibe, amenities and breakfast! But most of all I want to praise the host Federico! Omg, he goes above and beyond to ensure you have the best stay and enjoy your time in Florence! From the first message to the last one you can feel how nice and welcoming he is! Not only he greeted us and helped us with our heavy luggage, but also took his time to recommend restaurants, shops and best views of the city. Thanks to his recommendation we took amazing photos from Piazzale Michelangelo at sunset! We were stupid to forget our shirt and he took all the effort to send it to our next stop in Italy!!! I mean that tells you a lot! The property is within 2-5 mins from the train station and within a walking distance from Duomo! The room itself was clean and I especially loved the design with all the small details: pictures, little decor statues, the common area where you can make yourself breakfast. I would definitely recommend everyone staying here and next time I’m in Florence I know exactly where I’ll be staying! Ciao Federico and Grazie Mille! Nothing, everything was perfect.
