Hu Firenze Camping In Town

10/10 Excellent
"It was a really nice experience staying at Hu Firenze. It was away from the hustle and bustle of the city and the main tourist areas, while a bus stop right across the street made it easy to get to the city centre. We also got to enjoy a bit of the Tuscan countryside experience. The only issue was that there is another Hu campsite called Hu Certosa, so you need to be careful not to book the wrong one, especially when travelling in a group and everyone is booking separately. This happened to us, but fortunately, the staff allowed my brother to stay with us since our accommodation had an extra bed. However, we had already paid for a tent at Hu Certosa. My recommendation would be to start breakfast earlier than 7:30 a.m. This would allow guests to leave at different times and help avoid long queues at the bus stop."
