My stay at Christina's was wonderful, especially because I was made to feel like a friend rather than just a guest. Christina invited me and my friend out to a music gig the very first night. It was such fun to go out with Christina and her friends and to experience life in Florence like a local. She also had great tips on where to go that only a local would know.

The room was large, clean and the view really is wonderful. I had my own bathroom as well which was great. the location is superb, you're right in the middle of the action and everything is walking distance. The train station is only a couple of blocks away.

If you come in summer bring insect repellent as there are mosquitos around at night (the windows didn't have mosquito nets).
