Donna's place is just as unusual and beautiful and charming as the pictures suggest. It's well-located in the center of Florence, in easy walking distance of just about anything you want to see. In particular, we enjoyed the gelato place just downstairs, which is listed on several websites as being one of the best in the city.
Donna was super responsive, which was helpful when we ran into a water heater issue (which I'm sure she has resolved). It was a self-check-in, which we thought was fine, although some might prefer to meet their host.
I stayed here with one friend, and the size was good for the two of us. I'm short but could touch the ceilings in the bedrooms, something I've never been able to do. I thought it was fun, but if you're very tall, you might need to watch your head. I found it very cozy to sleep in.
The weather had just turned colder when we visited, and we were chilly one night, but Donna's son dropped by with extra blankets the following day while we were out -- again, super responsive, which is appreciated.
