My husband and I decided to make a spontaneous stop in Florence while on our honeymoon and arrived at the train station with no hotel reservation. We planned to find a place near the Duomo after walking around a bit, but ended up speaking with the owner of Hotel Cristina at the station and after finding out that the price... More

Germano drove us to his B&B from the train station. It was definetly a good value for the amount we spent. Him and his wife, Cristina, were kind and welcoming. The place itself is about a 15 minute walk to the Duomo. The entire place was very clean! Also, breakfast is included and they bring it right into your room! More

My wife and I met Germano at the train station and he gave us a ride to the rooms. He and Cristina were very nice and very helpful. She provided us with a map and showed us how to get to all the interesting places. The room was much bigger than expected and the bathroom was big by U.S. standards.... More

So the key thing is that Cristina and her family live at the hotel--the reception is their living room. You pretty much get your room to stay in. The breakfast is early and mediocre (but filling)--if you are like me, you feel a little sad having mediocre food in Italy. But if you just want a clean place to lay... More

If you are travelers like us, you want to experience the real feel of the town or country you are visiting. Staying with a local family is a great way to do this. Christina and Germain were extremely hospitable and helpful. Their breakfast was bigger and better than most.. Also having breakfast in our room was a nice way to... More

We met Germain (I think that was his name) at the train station and bartered a slightley lower price with him for a 3 night stay. He then drove us to the guest house (at this point we were slightely sceptical) we walked up the dark stairway to the Guest house and were very pleasantly surprised. Cristina and Germain were...
