I had the best stay here in Casa di Anna. I was greeted by Carlo, the kindest and warmest man I’ve ever met. Honestly I feel like he treated me like a daughter, so attentive and caring. He gave me a bus ticket for my first ride since there wasn’t a tabacchi around (tip: buy your bus tickets on the app ATAF). He prepared the best cappuccino and pastries for breakfast. I didn’t speak much Italian, he didn’t speak much English but we communicated through translating apps fine. He told me about how much he enjoys doing the Airbnb, and how fun it is to meet a lot of different people. My last morning, he went out early for groceries so he put coffee in a thermos bottle, which was so kind. He also told me to bring the milk he prepared with me, but I couldn’t carry a lot that day. The home is a bit far away from the center, but bus number 8 (right down below the house) runs very close to Galleria dell’Accademia. Or you could take bus number 8, and then number 23 which goes past almost all main attractions.
The room was clean and had all the essentials. I loved that I had a private bathroom too!
Unfortunately I had to shorten my stay, and Gloria was very quick to respond and accommodate me. It was a pleasant experience.
All in all, Casa di Anna is a lovely home and I would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to have a great trip in Firenze.
