 | cupboards full of breakfast treats and an espresso machine! Hanging out with the other travellers in the kitchen. |
 | Wi-Fi was very spotty. Being on the ground floor of an apartment complex, there were some nights when the upstairs neighbors were very noisy. |
 | Cross-Pollinate staff are very responsive to all requests and questions - a joy to work with. |
| This cute B&B was well-located just steps away from the SMN train station. Easy walking access to everything we wanted to visit. Clean and charming and the accommodations perfectly matched the websites description. |
| Wi-fi connectivity |
| Cross -Pollinate was wonderfully helpful in every way imaginable. This Included prompt e-mails back and forth to assist, and a recommendation to another affiliate when they could not find a room for us in Paris. Steve and staff were spectacular and I am recommending to family and friends! They made our 2 weeks in Europe a fabulous experience!!!! |
| Lisa was very helpful with directions and recommendations for places to eat. Her mother Roberta helped us get reservations for the Uffizzi with very little notice. The back garden was a lovely place to chill and the room and bathroom were spotless. |
| not sure there is anything to be done, the tile floors and long hallways made for a noisy corridor late at night when other guests came in. |
| so easy and so quick, I have already recommended this to several friends and clients. |
| Roberta was great & very hospitable. The recommendation of a local restaurant was so good we went back multiple times! Enjoyed the garden and the central location. Love Florence! |
| No complaints... |
| Excellent customer service... as advertised! |
| Host was excellent and very helpful. Offered coffee/cappuccino when we arrived and a map of the city which was very helpful. |
| Directions to the apartment. It took us over an hour in the area driving around and around because the street names change every block for the same street and we did not know that. Google insisted we could go down a one way street to get there, and our other maps were not at all helpful. Once we finally found the place, we bought a GPS just to help out with our further travels! |
| Cross Pollinate was excellent in changing our reservation to a place where I did not have to go up a flight of stairs with no elevator, as was using crutches and/or wheelchair which was unplanned when I booked our travel arrangements. |
| A wonderful guesthouse in Florence! Roberta, the owner, is so sweet and welcoming and made sure we were comfortable the entire stay. Such a good location, steps from the main train station, with great trattorias around the corner. Lovely, safe, and beautiful space. We would stay here again in a heartbeat! |
| Wonderful! |
| I loved the hospitality of our host Liza. We loved the Garden room and the little garden. |
| I liked the quaintness of the place and Roberta is one of the sweetest ladies! She truly made the experience of staying at Casa Corsi a joy. I wish I would have planned more than one night.... |
| Very good. I would not hesitate to use your services again. |
| Roberta was so sweet, greeted us at the door with cool refreshments. The location is prime, right near the train station and so close to all of the beauty of Florence. |
| Cross-Pollinate was great! Thank you for helping us find the perfect place to stay. |
| Roberta was very nice with us. Location is quite good to visit Firenze. |
| bathroom and toilets are in the same room. So it is not easy to have a place when the guesthouse is full. |
| Roberta was just wonderful! Kind and helpful, she greeted us with cookies and coffee and let us know that the kitchen was free to use as was the high-efficiency washing machine. The guest house was just great with fresh white linens and towels, a new bathroom and shower. Clean and fresh and light. The proximity to the train was perfect and easy to find. The lovely garden outside the guesthouse was quiet and peaceful. Roberta's daughter, Alisa (sp?) was enthusiastic and energetic. We talked while she tended the garden. She speaks English very well! We are home in Massachusetts now ,and after visiting other places in Italy, the Casa Corsi remains a highpoint for us. We hope to visit again sometime. |
| Before we left for our trip, we were a bit apprehensive. Booking things online for places unknown can always cause some trepidation, but our concerns were allayed and we are now happy loyal fans! Everything went smoothly, thanks to everyone involved from the taxi driver who met us at the airport to the homeowners of the two places we stayed. We'll definitely use cross-pollinate again! |
| The room is very clean and the garden of the B & B is awesome! The host and her family are very nice and helpful! Location is excellent! Enjoyed the stay! |
| Roberta, our hostess, was outstanding! Her english was excellent and she made us feel welcome with coffee and biscuits when we arrived. The triple guest house was very quaint and confortable - walking through the garden to get there with the blooming Magnolia tree was specacular. Super close to the train station and walking distance to everything. One of our favorite places on the trip! |
| Roberta is very kind and gracious. She makes you feel right at home. The location although not right in the heart of town is easy walking distance to everything. The kitchen is a great place to hang out and meet other travelers. In fact, not only did we cook a few meals ourselves but we stayed up into the wee hours of the morning chatting with other visitors. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to any of my friends! |
| Just a couple of things to warn people if they are picky ( we are not and especially for the price you pay and the helpfulness from Roberta)... our room smelled like cigarettes, there was only one bathroom for several people so there can be a line at times, and the walls are thin. |
| Great service! We also stayed at The Bee-hive in Rome which was also fantastic and highly recommended. |
| The owner - Roberta was lovely. She really wanted us to feel welcome and we did. There were a few students from other countries studying in Florence staying there too so we got plenty of local information from them. The location is great - so easy for the train and bus stations and then a short walk into the center of town. Very comfortable and I would stay there again. |
| Cross-Pollinate are great - the descriptions are accurate and they are very responsive to questions. |
| Roberta (owner) and staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. it's a great location close to station and only 10 min walk to centre of town and great value given you can cook meals if you wish. |
| Casa Corsi was blocks away from the train station and easy to find. Huge plus for us Americans with little Italian. The owner could not have been nicer or more friendly. The accommodations were warm and cozy but not small. We spent one evening eating on the patio enjoying their flowers and the lovely atmosphere. It's been a year and a half since our trip and we still talk about how wonderful our stay was in Florence. |
| can't think of a thing |
| Easy and accurate about the accommodations |
| Ease of getting to the apartment from train station, adequate facilities for self catering, complimentary web access, security |
| Signage from the outside of the apartment. It was not the most obvious. |
| Reliable and consistent; very good experience overall |
| Our host was very nice and made us feel at home. Had a small garden area in the back of the house and we were able to relax there as well. |
| Really appreciated working with Cross-Pollinate in setting up lodgings in Venice, Florence and Rome. Will use them again. |
| The establisment was close to the rail station and places to eat. Also centraly located from most of the sites in the city. You had full access to the kitchen and the staff was the best you could ever ask for. Very quite and dark, no road noise, so resting from your day out and about was very peacful. Will gladly stay there again if I am ever to stay in Fireniza Italy again. In fact we stayed there rwo more days than planned. Great place to day trip to Piza from. |
| Cross-Pollinate is a nice place and helpful, as we were mostly free lancing our trip. They were a big help in finding places for us to stay, in those cities, where we were visiting. |
| Wonderful value in the centro pieno. Clean if a trifle austere rooms, shared bathroom (nice), shared kitchen (just like home), a use of a beautiful little courtyard and a wonderful and friendly proprietress, Roberta. All at a most reasonable cost. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Firenze. |
