  • Well, we booked thinking it was a hostel, so we were looking to meet people and have fun at night while in the morning we could walk around. Ostello Goro has its room all full of students that live in the city, so theres nothing going on around their public area, only people that know each other(their roommates) so they hang out together and study in their room.. not fun for guests. They moved us to a hostel next door called B&B Laura because they didnt have room for us. Not so organized

  • It was great staying there! They gave us a very good map and helped us in organizing our only one day in Florence. Home made Tiramisu at breakfast is awesomwe!!It´s kind of difficult to get to the place because the numbers in the street doesn´t follow any logical order, but italian people are very nice and would help you any time you need.

  • One of my favorite places I stayed! The staff is very friendly and welcoming. There was chef every morning to cook breakfast foods (complimentary) and one night I was there they sponsored a dinner! The hostel was very cozy though a little towards the outskirts of the city center. Still really close to the Accademia and San Marco and only 10 minutes from the duomo. I would definitely recommend it!
