BB Porta San Frediano

Perfect experience, the owner is truly exceptionally kind. We stayed in the room with the loft… Wonderful. Great value for money and excellent location: Just a minute's walk away is the bus that takes you to the center in about ten minutes and is also only about a twenty-minute walk from the Visarno racetrack, if, like us, you want to see a concert. Very good breakfast: there were vouchers to use at the bar across the street, which has really delicious pastries. Highly recommended

I had wanted to stay in Oltrarno and I’d advise anyone to try it. The experience is very different from the city hotspots only a bridge away. I did wilt under the walk in, eventually (there is a regular bus to the centre and the station), but this was the hellish heat of August, and on the way in you pass a number of funky good value (or indeed a division up) food & drink outlets, the couple of those I tried were excellent. San Frediano at least would be worth stepping across the river for anyway. I’ve been in newer and posher rooms, but it was clean, spacious for the price, the boss man was upbeat (and people say well informed), and I was glad of a/c, fridge, and being able to boil water. If it came up again at a good price against other locations I’d have no hesitation in staying there again.

It's embarrassing to describe a room on the ground floor with small, old and dirty furniture... the owner changed our room (the latter was slightly more decent but with a broken shower cubicle)... I am a worker in the sector and a traveller, I adapt to all situations but there I really couldn't stay calm 166.00 per night for a dilapidated room no it's not possible
