What people say
The hotel was intimate, friendly, and the very unigue decor was fun for the kids. It met our needs and had the European feel we wanted. Opening our bedroom window and seeing the Duomo down the street set the mood for our Florence experience. Attitude makes all the difference. We were like children in a candy store so even challenges (like the obscure hotel sign that makes it hard to find and the many flights of stairs with luggage to reach the lobby) all made for laughs and memories. all reviews »

No.1 in all the places I've been staying in Italy for 10 days.
One block from the Duomo, in the center, nicely decorated, "homey" breakfast area. Just a great find in a very expensive area.
Good location in Florence. Easy to get around. Good value for the 4 of us traveling together. Decent breakfast.
the room is awesome. Staff give me a very large room which has three beds. And the price is very nice.

The location, free Wi-Fi, breakfast included.
My teenage son says he didn't like it when the hostess squeezed his cheeks after he thanked her for breakfast. :).
Nothing.
A bit difficult to find.
don't have lift.
You have to climb 53steps to reach property. So, once you go up you really have to pull yourself out.
The bathroom is tiny and if you are healthy you may not even take shower comfortably.
Nothing.
A little hard to find as only a small sign outside. You have to walk up
2 flights of stars to get to the Hotel as there is no lift.
The smallest bathroom ever - seriously, just like yacht crew cabin! Patchy Internet signal.
A lot of stairs to carry luggage up.
The breakfast is poor and the cleaning its not too good. But for the price its ok.
When booking, I failed to notice this hotel is on the 2nd floor! 53 stairs to climb and carry your case as there is no lift! Fortunately hotel staff very kindly offered to help us. The shower is extremely small with the tap sticking into the middle of the shower!.
The 54 steps to Reception. These should have been mentioned. Older people with heavy suitcases really struggled.
The Abaco is more pension than hotel - it's very dark and very dated.
