A room high-up in one of those old colossal buildings in the heart of Florence is an experience I would recommend anyone! Carolina and her mother were fantastic hosts, very welcoming and helpful. The room and house were clean, the bed good, towels and soap/shampoo provided like you are in a hotel. If you like sleeping with the window open I would advise bringing ear-plugs as you do hear noise from the street down below, but hey, it's a city center!;) You do pay for the location of course so it's not as cheap as some other rooms in the area might be, but I think it is worthwhile. (The only thing I found less of a deal was the Italian breakfast without Italian coffee for an extra €5, I could never prefer instant coffee over the real thing!;)) Anyway, thanks Carolina, you have my recommendation!
