Lanterna Fiorentina B & B is a small, comfortable 3-room Bed & Breakfast just a 10-minute walk from the train station. The owner, Gianna, lives on one side of the completely renovated apartment, and the other side is occupied by the guestrooms. The rooms are all cheerful and colorful, with each having its own intriguing color scheme: coral, jasper, and jade. The rooms are different in size (one can only be a single, another is a double, and a third is spacious enough for a third single bed), but all have air-conditioning, satellite TV, hair dryer, electric kettle (with a selection of coffee, tea, and infusions), double-glazed windows, and WiFi connection. One of the rooms is accessible for disabled guests. A breakfast voucher is included in the price, so that guests can go have a light Italian breakfast at a nearby café. Guests will be welcomed by Gianna in the common room, who will be happy to answer any questions you have about visiting Florence, including assistance with reserving museum tickets, restaurant suggestions, and information about bike rentals, guided tours of Florence, or a bicycle tour in the Tuscan countryside. Lanterna Fiorentina is on the first floor (with elevator) of a building in the heart of the 18th-century quarter of the city, an important area during the time Florence was briefly the capital of the Kingdom of Italy. Besides being convenient to the train station, it's also within walking distance of other main sights in Florence like the Accademia, the Medici chapels, the Duomo, Piazza della Signoria, the Uffizi gallery, the Ponte Vecchio, and the lively market of San Lorenzo. Less than 100 meters from the B & B is Piazza Indipendenza, one of the biggest squares in Florence, where you can relax on some park benches under the shade of the big plane trees.
