I can honestly say that staying with Silvia was one of the highlights of my trip to Firenze. The room is wonderful, everything just as described and even more fantastic in person than on photos, and the location is very convenient to just about everything you'd wish to do.

Silvia put together a great city guide on her profile--which you should check out when planning your trip--and also provided more nuanced advice based on my personal interests.

But the absolute best part of the stay was Silvia herself, who opened her doors to a stranger and made them feel at home. She even made time to help me practice my Italian language skills after I mentioned I'd been studying (il mia insegnante di italiano dice grazie!).

I hope I'm half as kind and good a host to my friends and family, much less a new guest. I hope to come again soon and will be sure to check first if Silvia has availability.
