This was just the most wonderful, healing experience. If you're a solo traveler looking to get away and spend some time on your own, I could not recommend Dani's studio more. It was so cosy, and comfortable. She had some snacks which proved to be very useful since I was spending all day in galleries and didn't want to fork out 15euros for a meal in the gallery restaurant! There was a coffee machine also which as such a perk. I'm an artist also, and she was very accommodating of that. I loved the fact there was an iphone charger already set up next to my bed. The view is just, spectacular. To wake up to the site of the Duomo was like living a dream! But be warned, the cathedral starts ringing its bells at 7am so if you're looking to sleep all day, this isn't the place for you! However the shutters keep out a lot of noise and there are ear plugs available in the bathroom.
If you're traveling from UK like me, I chose the cheapest flight which meant so checked in luggage, so I had limited supplies and not really any toiletries. This turned out to be totally ok because Dani provides pretty much everything! From shower, to shampoo, to a toothbrush and plasters. She even provides Florence tour guide books and basic Italian language books!
I'm not sure what it is about this apartment, but after going through awful heart break, I just wanted to go somewhere to revive my soul, and this place brought me back to life again.
Thank you so much Dani, I will never get my special time and your warm welcome. xxx
