This is a challenging one to review. You cannot beat the location and old world charm of this place. The small balcony was perfect for enjoying a nightcap. However, my first impression of the old dark stairwell and going through the office to reach the room were unexpected. The shower leaked (inside shower), the door fell off and backed-up immediately. Upon further inspection, the room was clean, but a white duvet would have gone a long way in giving the impression of cleanliness. Overall, we would stay again with managed expectations.

Your location is perfect, nice neighborhood, lots of good restaurants around. Near the train station. And very close to the center, everything is walkable. Free breakfast is good and convenient. I’m glad it’s not inside your place. It’s a cute little restaurant beside it and servers are nice! May have couple of issues in regards to the place itself. Once you enter the building, it’s disgusting because it’s dark and smells really bad. Not your fault per Gonzalo the receptionist person, it’s a problem and the city won’t do anything. But maybe you can make the entrance hallway bright and cleaner. The room has no luggage rack or at least desk or a table were you can put your luggage. The bathroom needs a table our a shelf were you can put your toiletries. The shelf by the bidet and toilet bowl is unsanitary and gross. The vanity mirrors light is not working. The switch is need to be replaced. It’s super gross too. The closet has 3 useless hangers. I open the closet once and I never opened again for 3 nights. It’s disgusting. Please add a hanger rod with decent hangers, luggage rack and a toiletries holder. This will make you place convenient to stay and will Make you gust happy. If those missing amenities will be added then I’ll Give you place 4 star.

Check in can be a nightmare. Make sure you communicate with them of your arrival time because no one is there otherwise. We weren’t aware of this and even though they had reached out to us we were already out of the country and in flight and never got their message. So when we arrived no one was here to let us in and the number given to us and posted outside didn’t work! We felt stranded! Luckily there was a maintenance guy there who was able to help us and call owner. The location is good. Just steps away from the duomo. There’s a great restaurant right across the street. And the breakfast included at the cafe down the street is nice. But the street is busy. If you have one of the rooms on the street side it gets noisy! If you’re a light sleeper absolutely do not sleep here! The walls are extremely thin. You hear everyone coming and going and all the kids in the streets late at night walking home screaming, singing, laughing, as well as every single car, bike and bus that goes by. The room was clean but rustic. A few things weren’t working but the host was quick to help. There is barely any hot water for your shower in the morning. My side of the bed was very comfortable but my husbands side of the bed I think was broken because it squeaked every time he moved. We were here for 5 nights and no one came to freshen up our towels, clean our room or make our bed. Which I guess was fine, although 5 nights is a long time to go without a cleaning.

FALSE ADVERTISING. DO NOT STAY HERE
Description of "hotel" listed daily housekeeping, laundry services, breakfast included, 37" plasma TV, refrigerator, room service, view of a garden, non-smoking, free bottled water. IT HAS NONE OF THESE THINGS! This isn't a hotel. It is an Airbnb. The host, Gonzalo, was there to check us in but was never seen again. He answered our text about the wifi password, but never responded to any further texts. We had to refill our toilet paper ourselves during the stay. The view was of a small courtyard with a tree and a view of cigarette butts tossed onto a ledge below from prior "non-smoking" occupants. The bathroom in our Standard Double room was microscopic and is nothing like the spacious rooms featured in the pictures on the website. The shower head was broken. The entire room itself measured 10'x13'. The sewer smell in the stairwell seems to be a constant based on other reviews from prior years. We will be filing for a refund from our credit card.

Cavour10 was a traumatizing experience. Walking into the building and it was dark, dirty and smelled of sewerage. We entered our room. The large window was wide open. Little did we know that we would have to kill at least 10 mosquitoes that night. My arm had many bites. A telephone wire was on the floor and across the threshold going into the room, the sheet had a blood stain, and the blanket was stained. There was no room service for our 5 day stay. New towels were dropped off once but the wet towels were not taken away. There was no place to even hang the towels. I left a bag of wet towels and a bag of garbage in the lobby area under the desk. The bathroom was like a closet. We had to ask Gonzalo for soap, shampoo and a garbage pale. There was no soap dish in the tiny shower. We had to either drop it on the floor or open the shower door and throw it in the sink. The cover on the toilet flusher was missing. The wall paper was dirty and stained. I texted Gonzalo the morning after our first night and asked if there was another room. He texted back 7 hours later and said he had to ask the owner. THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I HEARD FROM HIM FOR 4 MORE DAYS. DO NOT STAY IN CAVOUR 10 no matter what other reviews say.

The room was beautifully decorated. The building itself, much like many accommodation options in Florence, is old. However, Cavour 10 has done a great job trying to maintain the authentic and historical design of the buildings decorations- providing rooms filled with gorgeous tiles, painted ceilings, and decorative wallpaper. While to some this may feel 'dirty' because it is 'old', as seen in other reviews, the room itself is actually very clean and stylish. The caretaker is also absolutely lovely and so willing to accommodate your needs! The location is also a huge plus- you can easily walk to all of the major sites from this location!

Disappointed and downgraded
We must have just been really unlucky here as I read so many positive things about This b&b, however for me it is by far the most disappointed I’ve ever felt about an accommodation. The main reason for this was I booked and paid for the largest nicest family sized Room with balcony as it was my husbands birthday present, this is confirmed on my confirmation from hotels.com. We were instead given the smallest back room with a sliver of a window which was considerably cheaper both when I booked and if You look at other dates. I questioned this a few times and was given various excuses, and told I didn’t need the big room anyway as we weren’t a family and how they cost the same so what was The problem. I assume what happened is a family booked for a longer period and They didn’t want to lose that booking so downgraded us in their favour, which would have been fine had it been explained before and the difference refunded. Was so disappointed and angry at the excuses it ruined our trip. Also we waited 40 minutes in the street to check in after being told to come back for 2pm after dropping our bags off, no answer to the doorbell, several phone calls and finally an email. Building work going on outside our small back room which woke us up on Saturday morning, which can’t be helped but also added to my regret at booking this place. A good location and very clean, again I guess we were just unlucky as so many good reviews, but it was an extremely poor experience for us.

Nice place, close to the Duomo. They were supposed to take out the extra bed (rollaway) because there were only 2 of us, but they never did, consequently the room was cramped. Otherwise is was a good place to stay.

Decrepit dirty room
When we arrived, after 14 hours of travelling, nobody answered the buzzer and we had to wait on the street with our bags in the rain for almost an hour. Finally, a local store owner agreed to use his phone to call the owner and we were let in. What a disappointment. The location is good, but the room was decrepit, with peeling paint on the paper thin walls. We could hear children crying in our room. The bedspread was dirty and we saw a bug scurrying in the bathroom. When we tried to leave, we realized that we were locked in as the person who showed us the unit did not show us how to exit (there are 4 doors/gates that need to be unlocked in various ways). Finally someone returned with breakfast vouchers for a diner across the street (this is how breakfast is included in the reservation), and let us out of the unit. We left without sleeping here, and forfeited a 4 night stay. They refused to refund any of the money. If you can stay anywhere else, I would highly suggest you pick somewhere else to stay. I don't know where the lovely pink room in the picture is located, or when that picture was taken, but our room was nothing like that.
