Nice little place
Stay was wonderful with great host. Was a little apprehensive about the elevator but, small elevators are the norm in Italy. This one was just a bit smaller.

My son and I really enjoyed our stay at the B&B. The owners go out of their way to help. We arrived late and they were there. We wanted to go to Mass and the owner called the church for me to check the times of service. Taking the tram into the city center is a short walk and an easy experience. Overall a great experience.

Il Grillo is conveniently close to a tram stop to the city, being just far enough away to escape the hustle of central Florence. The breakfast available is more than enough, with very good coffee. The balcony had great views of the mountains, a lovely spot for an evening sit. The room was large enough for four people and the windows were soundproofed from the streets outside. Lara and Lorenzo were perfect hosts and very easy to chat with. They had lots of advice regarding the local area and how best to navigate around the city. They both clearly have a passion for ensuring their guests feel comfortable and at home. Thank you for a lovely stay and also for the wonderful leather bound books given as gifts! A last little touch, we had to leave for an early train on our final day, the hosts went out of their way to ensure that we had a packed breakfast box to take with us, a lovely gesture which we appreciated greatly.

Lorenzo and his wife Lara are amazing hosts. They give you an explanation of the city, the best ways to get around, and the best ways to save money. By the end of my one night / two day stay, they had me getting around Firenze like a local. They provided a delicious breakfast in the morning, which I enjoyed on the terrace with the beautiful Florentine cityscape around it. The room was functional, clean, and surprisingly spacious for my needs. Oh and the air conditioning on the property (and the rooms) works fantastic. Stay here if you get the opportunity!

I arrived to the B&B by tram from the Airport and Lorenzo helped me with Directions. I had a warm welcome from him as well. I only stayed one night, but the vibes and hospitality make me wish I stayed longer. I had forgotten a few things and I was able to grab it from a shop right downstairs. Which had from toiletries to shoes and snacks. I feel silly that Lorenzo's wife's name is escaping my memory as she was a delight to me on the second day. After checking-out, I had a remote work meeting and she let me take it on the premises before going on with my adventure. Breakfast was great, with plenty of wonderful quick options. I only had a coffee and a banana as I often skip breakfast, but there were plenty of great options to get you going for the day. Thank you for such incredible hospitality in such a great space. I will be back.

Good value
Spacious, clean room with a.shared balcony. Bathroom was small especially the shower stall. It will be challenging if you’re over 6 feet and 200 pounds - although not the smallest I’ve encountered in Italy. Location is in a quiet neighborhood about 4-5 tram stops (only 10 min) from the main train station - not walking distance to any tourist sites. B&B only has 4-5 rooms so breakfast is continental. Staff was friendly and helpful. Overall a good value, especially if you want to be a bit away from the hordes of tourists.

This was a perfect stay for our one night in Florence. The host was lovely, and took good care of us. There was a small issue with making payment by credit card due to internet connection, but it was worked out.

Great B&B in a beautiful area of Florence, close to downtown and at a walkable distance from a Mall and the University. Lara and Lorenzo go above and beyond to make you feel at home. Lara even prepared us takeout breakfast when we had to leave before breakfast time! It was my first time staying at a B&B and I was not disappointed. Thanks guys for your hospitality!

A convenient place to stay!
Lara, the owner greeted us on our arrival with a big smile that radiated warmth. The breakfast was a continental style with a ham and cheese panini. We enjoyed her company and that she was always there to answer questions and make suggestions. We stayed 12 great days.

My stay at Il Grillo was superb all around. The host, Lara, made checking in very quick and easy, reaching out prior to my arrival so that she would be available to meet me. She was extremely friendly, welcoming, and accommodating to my every need. I very much hope to have more hosts like her in the future as her demeanor alone made the stay worthwhile. Aside from that, the rooms were also very nice and as clean as can be. All of the amenities, i.e. the air conditioner, TV, and shower were quite modern and the breakfast was exemplary. The metro was only a brief 2 minute walk away and led directly to the city center in under 10 minutes, making the lack of restaurants and tourist attractions in the immediate surrounding area irrelevant. That being said, the neighborhood in which this property is located still had plenty of little stores and markets for a variety of needs. Overall, I can not recommend Il Grillo enough, it left absolutely nothing more to be desired for the price and I very much look forward to staying again on my next visit to Florence.

The host was extremely helpful. They accommodated my dietary needs for breakfast. It is very easy to get to by local train from the airport and also just a quit train ride to the historic areas of Florence. Overall, we were very pleased with our stay.

Warm welcome!
We were warmly greeted and were told about how to navigate around Florence as well as a restaurant around the corner. We picked this for its proximity to the airport. Taxi fare to and from about 21 EUs.
