Where to BEGIN! I booked Silvia's Airbnb a long time ago so that I'd have an affordable place to rest in Florence after completing my 5 week/800km walk across France and Spain (Camino de Santiago). I arrived earlier than expected because my flight from Barcelona was EARLY, and the bus from the airport took me directly to the train station (which is a quick 7 minute walk to Silvia's) so I was 2 hours early and EXHAUSTED! Silvia jumped on her moped and rushed over to let me in, put me in a room that was an upgrade from the one I booked (because the one I rented was still occupied) all so that I could shower and get some sleep. She was what we call in the Camino world a Camino Angel.
If you are looking for a beautiful, quiet and affordable place with excellent customer service, then this is the place! What a great value AND it's so close to all the attractions of the city!
Happy Travels!
