Vera and her dogs welcomed us very friendly. She knows the city and helped us to find good places to eat and explained the public transportation to us. This helped a lot because we only had one day in Florence.

You can find her place easily from Santa Maria Novella train station within 10-15 minutes by walk with luggage. Vera's room comes with a private bathroom which sits between the corridor and your room. We had enough space for our luggage and and the room was very quiet. The room has air con which we haven't used because the weather was fine for us without air con.

We must thank Vera in particular for helping us out when we discovered that our train to Rome runs from a different train station than we arrived. You must know that Florence has more than one train station. Make sure you arrive/depart from Santa Maria Novella train station.
