Donella was a great host - she left us some some breakfast goodies, and soaps. She and Susanna patiently and promptly answered our many questions and also arranged a taxi for us as well. Her apartment was very clean and we really appreciated the air conditioning in the bedroom as it was in the 90’s when we were there. It was a 17 minute walk to the train station so very easy to get back and forth and there is a little mini market only a block away.
I would recommend staying here if you visit Florence
