I am a 69 year old American woman and took a chance on a 'hostel' in Florence. I will choose Ostello Bello for all of my Florence stays from this day forward. I reserved a single room which was large (for a hostel) and quiet. Ostello Bello has free wifi (I was on a working vacation), fun activities for all, the location is PERFECT. Staff is patient, helpful, and a free drink on arrival set the tone for the weekend.

Hard mattress and thin walls, and the elevator was a little concerning, but otherwise a pleasant stay in a central location only a few minutes walk from the train station and close to key attractions. Shared dorm for four females had a bathroom for the four of us so that was great!

Absolutely fantastic experience at Ostello Bello. There were literally film crews coming to check out the location while I was there — it’s genuinely that great. Won’t be the most comfortable bed of your life but for a hostel? Fabulous.

A very reasonable price hotel to fit our budget and need. It is very safe, clean, comfortable and walkable to tourist attractions and train station. The huge kitchen has all we need from cooking utilities to ingredients and even fruits for vegetarian meals and they are free. It also has a library by the kitchen where people can meet, social, and share their travel experience. It has a free luggage storage. The staff were very nice too.

Hostel atmosphere

Room was basic and tired looking. Comfort was good with dark curtains, high threadcount sheets and firm mattress. Not really for older adults because most guests were in their twenties. Tiny bathroom and no minibar so impossible to keep medication refrigerated.

This was an ok place to stay (family of 4) - two parents and two adult children. Clean, you check-in at the bar and they were very friendly and helpful when we needed a very early cab to airport. However, it is quite noisy to try and sleep at night and seems to be a place for much younger adults, especially with the bar below. First night, there was no hot water (may have been due to maintenance being performed on building). Thankfully, next two mornings, we had hot showers. Beds were not great; make sure the slats underneath are evenly spaced. Makes for a much better nights sleep.
