Foresteria Sociale Florence Center byNewGeneration

Being able to stay in a convent definitely piqued my interest when I found this place. Another plus is proximity to train station and a ten minute walk into the heart of Florence. The courtyard garden in the evening for dinner is beautiful. However, do not overlook this and other reviews especially on cleanliness. The fact that there’s NO HAND SOAP in any of the bathrooms is disgusting. And because the building is old, the wood of the bunks are old too. I woke up my second morning to find bed bug bits all over my ankles. Consider what your priorities are in a hostel before staying here.

My room of 6 beds was infested with bedbugs. I asked to have my mattress, pillow and the bedding changed but I dont think they did since i waking up with more bites. The other guests in my room also got bites. Sad because it was a nice place. I hope they get pest control in there soon.

Por mais que a cama era confortável, encontrei percevejo nela (bedbug) e fui picada várias e várias vezes, tive que tomar antialérgico.

The sheets were not clean and when I finished my stay I found bed bug bites on my exposed skin outside my pajamas which was very disturbing. And there was a lot of noise in the bathroom.
