We stayed with Thalia and her family for 2 nights but it was definitely too short a stay thanks to the nice city and Thalia's amazing hospitality.

The first thing that hits you about her house is that it's at a really prime location; super convenient, located at just a nice 10-15 min walk from SMN and Statuto stazioni, but just far enough to be away from the touristy side of town so that you can feel the local florentian vibe whenever you leave the house.

The house was large and cozy, and it felt like a safe nest, like a home outside of your own home. The whole house was very clean and everything in the house is so organized that you don't need much guidance before settling down nicely. Thalia also prepared a nice little surprise for us in the room on our first day that really put a smile to our face after a long, early morning train ride. :')

Our first meeting with Thalia & Francesco was also very heartwarming because they were really warm and welcoming people. They gave us the most precious gift anyone could offer: their time, to interact with us, have breakfast together, and a really detailed runthrough of florence so that we were well-informed of everything we needed to know, see, and do. In times of emergency, they were also really patient and accomodating to take the initiative to sit down and help us the best way they could.

Here at Thalia's, we definitely got to see someone that understood everything a traveller needs, and definitely experienced another level of hospitality that is befitting of a real superhost!! :))
