We are so happy we booked a stay with Residenza Cecchi. It's off the beaten track but well worth it to escape the crowds on the side of the river. We were able to explore the Oltrarno neighborhood which feels much more relaxed than the main tourist spots. We had no problem getting around, but expect to walk a fair bit since it's a bit further out. About 30-35 minutes walk to near the Santa Maria Novella. The B&B itself is beautiful. Quiet, well-appointed, and Lucy - the staff member who took care of the breakfast - was so warm and welcoming and friendly. What a sweet person! She made our stay that much more enjoyable! We stayed in the Blue room, and the bed was large and very comfortable, with excellent AC to help us cool off. Everything was clean and well taken care of. Breakfast was simple but perfect European fair, with Lucy helping us make cappuccinos each morning. Last but not least, there are two cats that made appearances at breakfast each morning, which as a cat lover, really put the whole experience over the top for me. I can't recommend this place enough! If you want a quiet, welcoming, warm stay in Florence far from the chaos of the crowds.

Room was very clean, bathroom being outside the room wasn't an issue at all it was just across the hallway
Breakfast was nice - good restaurants in the area.
Great stay overall

The room was lovely and big. Everything was very clean. Airconditioning helped with the summer heat. Shared bathroom which was pristine. Delicious morning breakfast. Close to public transport but also only about a 30min walk away from all the relevant galleries/museums.

The B&B was on a nice quiet street but with easy access to restaurants, the bus, and a walk along the river. The room was clean and breakfast was nice! The hosts are very responsive and friendly.

This is slightly off the touristy line but terrific to get a more local flavor. About an easy mile walk to many tourist sights. Breakfast was good with plenty of choices although I would have lined it to start before 830. I also did not realize that there was a shared bathroom but in 5 days this was only an issue once. I really liked walking the neighborhood beyond the tourist regular locations. Thanks for a nice stay.
