My friend and I stayed here 2 nights during our trip in Italy. If you want to be close to the Firenze Santa Maria Novella train station, this is definitely the place! Maybe a 10 minute walk, if that.
We got lost finding the place, but that was an error on part of our GPS :) When we arrived, Simona was worried about us, but we assured her everything was alright! The private room and bathroom were fantastic. The bed was super comfy, and the ceiling fan was awesome! She provided us with coffees and teas. (The cappuccinos were delicious!) There was also a mini fridge, which we didn't use, but it would certainly be convenient for someone that needs it.

The only downside was that a specific checkout time was not given to us. We informed Simona when we arrived that our bus left at 3pm on the day of our departure. She asked if we would be out of the room by 11 am each day because that’s when Christopher comes to clean. We said, “yes.” On the day of our departure, we receive a message from Simona saying our checkout was at 11 am, and she was urging us to check out immediately. Thankfully, we weren’t far and we packed up and left in under 30 minutes from receiving her message. Again, she never told us when our checkout time was --only that she would not be there at that time so we were to leave the keys in the mailbox.

My advice to future renters is to be clear about a checkout time. Otherwise, it was a pleasant stay.
