Christine’s place is as pictured! And it’s not far away from the dome and other parts of Florence. It’s about a 20 minute walk to the dome. If you don’t mind walking, it’s not that bad, but if you do, Christine tells you what bus to take, where to buy the tickets, etc. There are mosquitos in the room, but that’s not Christine’s fault, there are mosquitos all over Florence. She provides a vaporizer for the mosquitos, if that doesn’t work, limit your use of perfume and light, you should be fine.
The beds were very comfortable! And the atmosphere was welcoming. The first day when we got in, we met Christine and her dog Frida, then Christine showed us the place, and gave us a map where she pin pointed where the tourist attractions are. It was definitely helpful, especially the tour books she has in the living room, and Frida is a cute grumpy dog!
Christine is super easy to talk to, and super nice. I recommend anyone to stay here while visiting Florence, I would stay here again.
