Simona was the perfect hostess! My wife and I stayed at her place for a few days and we loved her. She was warm and welcoming and she made us feel right at home right away! The place was full of small thoughtful details to make our stay easier. She even had put together a binder with useful information with maps, tourist information, and even typical foods and recommendations on where to go for good affordable food. There were little details everywhere you looked in the room. The bathroom was spacious and also very clean. The room had a window which looked into a cute little garden which also added to the quaint feel of the room. There was also a young guy named Chris who would come and clean up and change our towels every day. The location of the place was great, just two minutes away from S. Maria Novella station and the center of town. The cafe where we had our breakfasts was also very close and the food was very good. They even had these delicious mini sandwiches we had for breakfast every day. There is nothing I would change about this place and I would recommend it without the slightest hesitation to anyone looking for an awesome place to stay in Florence!
