Standing jacuzzi

My new hotel in Florence is a lot nicer than the previous horse stable, and also has character. I'm not as creeped out by this place and it's on a major street with lots of noise. Having lived in NYC for 6 years, I don't do well with quiet anymore. The hotel is called Soggiorno Gloria and they leave snacks in your room, such as crackers and mini cakes!
In addition to the snacks, I also enjoy the standing jacuzzi shower. What a great idea as a space saver. The holes on the sides literally spout out ferocious water that almost double as a massage. I just wonder how many people have squirted themselves clothed when turning it on with the door open.

Bye bye horse stable

I decided to stay in Florence for 2 more nights so I can go hike the Cinque Terre. Unfortunately, my horse stable guest room was no longer available so I had to change to a real hotel. But here is a last look at the guest house when you first walk in. The spiral staircase is cool and spooky at the same time, no? Very much what I picture as a fixture in old world European houses.
