Gabriella is the most wonderful host I have encountered as of yet, she goes out of her way to make you feel comfortable. Every morning she woke up early to make me a very tasty breakfast which I enjoyed so much! The room was very clean and the interior was so cool and unique. The apartment is a bit out of the centre, but the tram takes you there in 15-20 minutes. The university neighborhood felt very safe for me as a solo traveller, at night as well. Just be aware of the time the last tram goes.
I would love to return to Florence someday and I hope to be able to stay with Gabriella again!
