You are literally waking up to the best view ever. Florence is my favorite city in the world. Seven years ago I came as a hostel staying backpacker. This go around, I wanted to splurge. Well, Dani's place was a splurge without the splurge pricing. You are mere steps from the Duomo and each day you wake up to it greeting you. In evenings, it's quiet with the windows shut. But open them and you're greeted to a melody below. Dani herself was remarkable. She gave me great local recommendations and insights. Greeting me, she was bubbly and full of smiles- even at 11pm. This is the only place I will ever stay in Florence again and if she ever sells, I'm buying.
