I truly enjoyed my stay at Benci House. The location was great, letting me explore Florence effortlessly. The room was beautifully designed, though it was a bit small for my liking. Breakfast at the nearby Moyo bar was satisfying, yet I found the noise from the bar below at night quite a distraction.

My stay at Benci House was lovely overall. The location was fantastic, right in central Florence, making it super easy to explore the city. The rooms were beautifully designed, though somewhat on the small side, and I found the breakfast served at the nearby bar quite good. However, keep in mind that the bathroom could use a bit more lighting, and there was some noise from the bar below during the nights.
