Cozy Bedroom with Garden

Telma and her husband are really nice people. She has notions of spanish and english, some french too and you can communicate for everything! They serve a good breakfast and adapt the time. You have the kees of the appartement wich is convenient, she offers you to pick you up if you need. She respect if you sleep in the morning or early night. There is also a parking in front of the appartement wich is good and safe to park. The area is nice and quiet, pharmacy, restaurant, bar and bus stop. It's located from 2 bus stop to Boboli garden, so you can go by walk to the center of Florence. The room is well decorated and confortable but you cannot use the kitchen. Bathroom is clean up everyday, and there is a little garden wich is nice to have breakfast or have a rest when good weather! The only inconvenient is that's the room is a little humid if it's raining out. We had a good time, and thank you again to telma and her husband for their kindness!!! Good quality/price to be close to the center of Florence

We spent a few interesting days in Florence. Telma is a very friendly person, nice. She welcomed us and served all the morning a hearty breakfast (bread, croissants, brioche, fruit juice, cheese, ham, yoghurt and other). Telma try to speak French, English and another to communicate.

Telma is a great host! She is very nice and good at taking care of guests. The house is very comfortable and the garden is amazing. The breakfast is very delicious too! :)

Telma is a very helpful nice hostess. The accomodation is a nice fitted bedroom with a separate unshared bathroom next to it. Telma serves a nice breakfast with coffee or tea, bread, marmalade and eggs. The accomodation is not in the centre of Florence, buses 36,37, 11 take you from centre Santa Maria Novella stazioni to Due Estrada which is the bus stop foe Telma's place. It helps to buy a carton of 10 tickets from the Tobacco shop (Tabacherria) in the main SMN station. Each ticket is valid for 90 minutes and must be validated by swiping it on the ticket machine in the bus.... On holidays these buses run about hourly but during weekdays half-hourly. It is a packed bus so if one brings luggage its best to hire a cab which costs under 15 Euros to get to Telma's apartment. I found the nights and early mornings cold and I do not know if there is heating. As the sun comes Florence warms up and I did not need even a sweater in April-May. It may rain so it helps to have a raincoat and cap. There is a nice restaurant near Telma's place and one spends around 20 Euros for a fair dinner per person, the going rate in Florence. Telma has a small number of books on Italy. Her knowledge of English is poor so repeat your questions till she understands you well. For example in her welcome note to me she said "good riddance"...obviously she never meant it. All in all for the small fee paid it is very good value and Telma is a nice pleasant person. Obviously if you want something upmarket you can stay in a hotel but staying in a b & b works both ways....Italian people are nice and friendly....most know little English so it helps to know some basic Italian to get around. All in all Telma is a nice person and runs a nice b &b.

We really enjoyed our stay with Thelma. She kindly picked us up at the station and ven better took us back at the end of our stay. The bedroom/bathroom was fine and cosy and we had no complaints. Nice breakfast served and the little garden was a real plus as was the independence of having our own keys. Thelma was very much a lady on our wavelength and communication in a mix of Italian, Spanish and English was no problem. Recommended unless you only like 4 star accommodation.

I was with my wife for a few days as a guest at Telma. They even gave us up at the airport to save us the trouble of the first correction by finding Florence in the late evening. We were warmly welcomed by Telma and her husband. The room is in the basement of the house and is nicely decorated. A little more sun, light and fresh air would improve the living environment but still. Dealing with the exceptionally friendly landlord is straightforward, almost familial. The room at Telma is a really good alternative for any short visit to Florence. Transport links are good and many shops are nearby. Within walking distance are many attractions within easy reach. Thanks and all the best.

We were by Telma between Christmas and New Year. She is very kind and welcoming and the house despite not being in the center is very well connected to the bus stop from where they spend two main lines is very close to home. But the room is very humid.

I really loved the room. It was super clean. Telma is a really great host. It was fast and easy to join her to arrange all the details. I would go back to this place anytime. Also it's very easy to reach the center of Floence with a bus, just beside the appartment.

Telma is a very nice host and very helpful, we spent quality time with his compagnie.Son apartment is ideally located close to shops and close proximity to the bus stop which takes you to the historic center of Florence in less than 15 min .

hostess very friendly, welcoming only gripe. dark room. Quick and convenient access to the center
