many thing is great about hotel. the location is perfect. easy to reach and central. I came by train and walked couple of minutes. there is a restaurant bar in the same building. I think it is a very good hotel in terms of price performance.

the special side of this hotel is that there is no lobby or staff. communication is just online. you check in the information by email (room password etc.) and checking out same way or qr code on the door. however, since the address link sent to me at the entrance showed the wrong block when opened on the map, it took me a long time to enter. and if there will be a problem at late time of you cannot reach anyone because whatsapp help is just chatbot, and booking center is hard to reach. the cleanliness could have been a little better.

The hotel is situated in an excellent location - steps away from Piazza del Duomo and walking distance to many sites: the Uffizi and Accadmia Galleries, Piazza Della Signoria, Piazza Della Repubblica. Many restaurants, cafes and shops. Checking in was easy as the room # and PIN was sent ahead of time in my online NUMA account. The room and bathroom was large, and the view of the Duomo Cathedral from our window was spectacular. We appreciated the free water, snacks and fridge.

We knew that the room would not have air conditioning when we made our reservation - however, the room was very warm during our stay. Opening the window helped a bit, but providing a fan in the room would have been helpful. A shelf in the bathroom to place toiletries on would also have helped.

The location is key as the property is perfectly, centrally located and, although there were complimentary ear plugs in the room, the only noise of note was the chiming of the bells from the duomo bell tower and another nearby church each morning. The property is very near to the Arno as well as to all the cultural institutions and all key attractions were within walking distance, except for the airport. The elevator was also a key to making this stay a good one. The room itself was small although all that you could need was included and the amenities, linens etc were all of a very good standard. The property is surrounded by excellent restaurants and cafes, as well as high-end designer stores, and there are plentiful options for souvenirs and local artisanal goods and produce as well as vendors selling local silk and cashmere scarves and leather goods on the streets. I arrived by taxi and the driver was able to drop me at the door.

My only reservation about my room is that I felt I paid at least 15-20% too much for a single bed especially since I was there in May so not during the prime summer period. It is worth noting that this is a contact-free hotel so I never encountered a single staff member and I’m not sure how I would have felt if there’d been anything go wrong. The property includes at least one other hotel on different levels as well as a bar and restaurant so the main access doors were always open and as a single traveller, I did wonder about the safety of the stairwell at night time. That said, I felt incredibly safe on the streets of Florence.

The property is just steps away from the Duomo Santa Maria di Fiore. And the room has a nice view is the front of the Duomo and the bell tower. The windows open up like French doors allowing you to observe all the activity below and the duomo. This is the heart of Florence and there are a lot of shops, cafes, and restaurants within walking distance.

The room was clean except for the bed. It was clear that the mattress hadn’t been cleaned in a while. There were several hairs and toenails present. There was quite a bit of noise given that this room is located in a building in the middle of the biggest tourist attractions. But if you shut the doors, then it’s not a problem. They also provide ear plugs as well.

This hotel is centrally located and in a lovely building off a Main Street. Whilst located in a busy street we had no issue with noise from our room (we were on the third floor). The bed was possibly the most comfortable bed I’ve had in a hotel ever. The room was a good size and the bathroom was well stocked with products and not in silly little sachets or small bottles. The shower was good. The hotel is not manned and so no one will come and clean your room each day but we did not find this an issue. If you run out of anything or want clean towels everyday, there is a cupboard on the floor for you to help yourself to. Our stay was excellent and being here just for a long weekend and being so centra to everything meant we could come back in the day if needed or were never far away at the end of the day to get back to the room.

The air conditioning was noisy but it did not stop me sleeping through the night although I did use the ear plugs provided. My daughter did not and she slept fine also.

The location is perfect! It’s right on a major shopping street, next to the Duomo, and a short walk to major attractions. The bed and pillows were comfortable and the room was cooled enough by the AC/ fan in the summer. Bathroom was nice with good shower (size, water pressure, shower heads). The room had everything I needed and was spacious enough for just me (single room). I like the keyless access because I didn’t have to worry about losing a room card and checkout was very easy.

The curtains had fallen out of the wall and were left stuffed in the chair when I arrived; later someone came to collect them. The leather chair was a bit torn and the rug needed cleaned to remove spots.

The room location was awesome. The communication with staff was through an app. Communication was very responsive and friendly, but not perfect (see below). The beverages in the room were nicely labeled "free". It was thoughtful that we were not left to guess.

The lift was not working on the date of our departure, so we needed to carry luggage down many stairs. The app folks told me I could enter the room as soon as it was ready, BUT the cleaning staff would not let me in the room until after 3pm (she literally counted the minutes). So my wife and I waited in the hall until 3pm sharp :-|

A Cozy Stay at numa l Rodo Rooms & Apartments, Florence A Convenient Spot for a Florence Adventure I recently stayed at numa l Rodo Rooms & Apartments in Florence, Italy, for a 4-day vacation. This accommodation offered a unique experience, blending comfort with the excitement of being in the heart of Florence. Compact Comfort in the Heart of the City The room, though small, was clean and well-equipped, providing all the essentials needed for a comfortable stay. It served as a cozy retreat after a day of exploring the vibrant streets of Florence. Unbeatable Location The location of numa l Rodo is its standout feature. Situated right beside the iconic Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, it places you at the center of Florence's rich history and culture. Its proximity to various restaurants and ease of access to the city's main attractions added greatly to the convenience of my stay. Service: Efficient but Impersonal The staff were friendly and helpful, ensuring a smooth stay. However, I found the service to be just okay, lacking a bit of the personal touch that often characterizes smaller accommodations. Morning Bells: A Quaint Wake-Up Call A unique aspect of staying at numa l Rodo is the morning wake-up call from the bells of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore at 7 AM. It's a charming, if somewhat early, reminder that you're in the heart of historical Florence. Overall Impression Overall, I recommend numa l Rodo Rooms & Apartments for travelers looking for a convenient and comfortable stay in Florence. Its superb location and clean, efficient accommodations make it a great choice, especially for those eager to explore the city's historic center.

A Note on the Check-In Experience I encountered an issue with the check-in password on the first day, which was a bit of a hiccup. However, it was resolved, and the rest of the stay was smooth.

Nice design and nice bathroom/ strong water pressure 🚿 in old buildings like in Florence that’s amazing.. And Loooved they use REN as product in the bad room amazingly good🤩 No service as everything is online and I have to say it went perfectly, even got the room early and got a message of that,very efficient. Smooth check in and check out. I’m going back even with the to soft bed, the location is perfect, had a perfect view of the Duomo from my window.

I didn’t like the bed, it moved standing on painted tiles, but worse was the bed was seriously soft, so soft that I had to take off the top on the mattress, to get any sleep. But seriously the only thing I didn’t love

Location was amazing, stepping right outside your hotel with views of the Duomo. You’re in the heart of shopping central. There is popular jewellery store called Marlu within 1 minute walk. There is always a massive line at this store, since it was such a close walk I got there at 8:30am and waited until 9:30am until they opened to be first served. Well worth the wait.

Small shower & air conditioning is very loud and not very strong
