This place was a surprise. The location is ridiculously central and wonderful, next to one of the most beautiful and famous churches in Florence, the Santa Croce (Galileo, Michaelangelo and more are buried there amongst others). One of my favorite restaurants during my stay was in the piazza sante croce, and there is a delightful and safe bar across from your door called "Queer." As a solo female traveler, it was nice to feel safe and taken care of there! The room itself looks like it must have just been redone. It took my breath away. The bed is extremely comfortable with many pillows (this is a must for me), the kitchen is equipped with whatever you could need including a fridge, coffee/tea supplies and basic spices for cooking. It is cozy for sure, but has everything needed. Stefano was an amazing host. He communicated often, answered questions in a timely manner, and was on call whenever I needed him. I was feeling unwell and ran out of toilet paper, so he biked to me late at night with toilet paper and offerings of chamomile tea brought to my door. Staying there was magical, and I pretended it was my real studio apartment in the heart of Florence. I can't wait to come back!!
