I loved staying here! Cristina is not only a wonderful, accomodating host, but a wonderful person! I felt so welcome in her home and after exploring Florence all day, it was a treat to have a place to come "home" to. One night we enjoyed each others company with wine and taking in the view from her rooftop terrace, and the other night listening to music, dinner and more wine! Cristina is so gracious, and even met me at the train station upon my arrival.

The location is superb, as it is minutes walking distance from the train station, daily street market outside, and next to the Central market with all the incredible food goodies! (My purchase there was Black Truffle infused honey, which I highly recommend!). The room is comfortable and clean; the private bath is big and has a bathtub! Loved this after long days out and about.

As a woman traveling alone, this was a PERFECT place to stay in Florence and I will certainly be back. A big thank you to Cristina for adding to my amazing first experience in Florence! I would stay here again without a doubt!
