The host gave me the wrong room number for check-in. Her messages said room 6, but her collaborator showed me to room 3 when I was trying to do self check. It worked out fine though.
The host was easy to communicate with by messaging. However, we selected this place because it was listed as early check-in (10am) and late check-out (11am) as we were only staying in Florence one night. However, we got a knock on our door at 10:15am telling us that check-out was 10:30am. We were about to leave anyway, but we were definitely rushed out. The listing should really be changed if check-out is 10:30am.
It was great to be close to the train station, but the streets and sidewalks around this place were very dirty. Maybe it’s just Florence. My husband accidentally stepped in dog poop. There was dog urine every few meters. The cleaning lady cleaned the floors really well, which was great, but it was probably because the streets of Florence are so dirty.
Since we booked so far in advance, we paid more for the room than the rates were later. Wish we would have waited.
All that being said, we were close to everything, so that was nice that we could walk places. It was a small, but cute room.
