Donatella’s apartment was the perfect landing spot for exploring Florence. The private bedroom and bathroom are a short walk through her living room then up the stairs. I felt totally comfortable passing through her home as I needed to. Donatella greeted me for check in and was very friendly, responsive, and helpful throughout my stay, giving recommendations or answers to questions as needed. The views of the city from the bedroom and patio are remarkable. She let me use a small section of her fridge. The apartment / home is in an older building, which may be why the shower water pressure was light, but wasn’t an issue for me. Everything was very clean on my arrival. Bed was comfortable and A/C strong. As a solo traveler, I felt completely safe in this apartment and in this area, even walking home alone at night. Highly recommended, thank you so much Donatella for your kindness and a fabulous stay!
