After staying 1 month at Dayuma's place in Florence I really enjoyed my time there. Climb up a few narrow steps and then feel right at home in a loft space with lots of character (wooden beams, archways, slanted ceilings, a skylight) set in one of the most charming pedestrian streets in Florence. The loft was very clean and stylish and quiet. The kitchen had a microwave oven and 2 electric cooktops with a large fridge/freezer while the bathroom was compact but functional. There was a tiny outdoor area also. The sleeping area had an excellent amount of storage and a comfortable bed. It took about 20 minutes to walk to the city centre but above all else I absolutely loved crossing the street Via Bolognese and entering Giardino dell'Orticoltura offering spectacular city views, especially at sunset. I never met the host but she always responded quickly to my questions and appeared kind and friendly. Highly recommended for an experience unlike any other.
