Ostello Tasso

If you like sleep and comfort, this place is NOT for you. It’s on top of a nightclub so if there is an event, you will get zero sleep before midnight! Which no one told us about, nor can you find it anywhere online. Beds were uncomfortable and there were no extra pillows or anything. Big plus (or so I thought) was the AC which was nice until it broke the next day causing a leak in the hallway. It says it’s in a nice location, but it is not a comfortable distance to the center. The place was clean, which was the only real good thing. If you can go elsewhere (perhaps pay a little more), do it.

The place is terrible end Very rude . It was our last night in Florence and it was a terrible night because of the rudeness of the hotel. They had a party with loud music and we couldn't sleep. It was a terrible disappointment. It's awful that you go to a hotel , a place to sleep and have some quiet and there is a party in the lobby 10 meter from your bed . Like an actual party with a dj . Very bad !!!!!

Some Pros, a lot of Cons: Room was clean and nice, no faults with it. We didnt expect extravagance. On sunday there was music playing downstairs til midnight, it was so loud our window was shaking at times. We weren't warned of this when checking in, couldn't see any signs, nor does the events page on their website display this info. Its not immediately clear when booking that this is also the case. Ontop of the loud music the hallways acted as a communal space for the shared dorms and because the doors are old and wooden you can hear a lot of noise. The AC broke on the second night after the hallway had a leak. The staff were very nice, it was very casually operated which was alright. The location is a bit out of the centre, but an easy enough walk. It did mean you were closer to cafes and restaurants that were outside of the tourist centre and so they were cheaper.

Our night was a disaster because the room was full of bugs and other insects like spider and a vigilante bee! we were suffering because of stinging all the night and trying to kill them! Also, ir was weekend and they had a party which lasted till 4:30 a.m. so we couldn't sleep at all in this night and it was a very bad experience. Also the pillow covers, blankets and bed covers were torn which means that they are old. The A.C wasn't working and the reception guy came to turn it on but it keeps turning off after few minutes. The toilet paper was used and we asked for a new one. Overall the hostel needs intensive cleaning

The Hostel is very nice and well located! Especially Tiziano was very friendly and helpful! He made every wish possible! I would recommend to come there, especially on friday and weekends they sometimes have community activities.
