Donatella’s home is a jewel in the heart of Florence. Comfortable, clean, and nicely decorated, it’s evident that she cares for her place very much and has an eye for beauty.
The scenery is stunning from the large bedroom window with a view of the Duomo, and same goes for the private terrace that I used almost every day to watch the sunset. Also, the duomo’s bell tower or campanile rings at specific times of the day and is a relaxing spectacle.
The location is perfect and I walked everywhere never once needing to use public transportation for the following attractions: Duomo, Piazza Della Signoria, Otrarno, Uffizi, Piazzala de Michaelangelo, San Lorenzo church, Palazzo Pitti and Boboli Gardens, Palazzo Medici Riccardi.
Donatella was friendly and accommodating, checking in with me about my day and providing restaurant recommendations(which were always delicious!). I’ll be sure to book this place again when I visit Florence in the coming years.
