I absolutely loved staying with Donatella! Her and her daughter Laura are incredibly wonderful people and I really enjoyed getting to know them. They made me feel comfortable and at home.
The flat itself is extremely lovely, spacious and well appointed with an artistic flare. Loved it! And so central to everything! There's a wonderful cafe just down the street called La Milkeria, and it's super close to the best gelato in the world, Edoardo (do yourself a favor and go there!). The room was perfect - lots of space, private bathroom, beautiful terrace, fantastic view and a comfortable bed.
I would definitely recommend staying with Donatella and would absolutely do so next time I'm in Florence. It was fantastic.
