Thalia was an exceptional host.
The home is super cosy! As soon as you arrive, you’re met with a warm welcome and helpful tips (where to eat, how much to pay, how to avoid tourist traps). We went to each recommendation and were very happy!
Thalia was super helpful with laundry too! We hung our clothes in the hallway and came back to it moved in front of the heater :) Bathroom was super clean and the shower was really good - you get it to yourself!
Across the road is a gelato place where they serve the locals I.e. no crazy prices and fresh produce. It’s a 10-15min walk from the main station but only 100m from the tram :) Be careful on the tram - make sure you validate your tickets! There were inspectors and they are relentless.
Only tiny thing is the bed is bit slanted on one half but it might be fixed by the time you’re there :)
Would 100% stay again. Thalia was warm hearted, informative and kind. She is passionate about people seeing the real Florence! You won’t regret staying there!
