Italy

We stayed for 2 nights in Florence, Tuscany at the Luna Rossa. We paid for an en suite room which meant we stayed in the second building - not the first where you check-in nearer the Train station. The second Luna Rose hostel building is further down the road but this is still a good location. We got the room right next to the front door and right next to the kitchen. The room was OK and it has a decent TV, Sky, Computer with internet but on the whole it wasn't wow. We stayed in Venice the night before and it was way nicer for alot less Euros.

We were in Florence for 3 nights. We got this Tuscany Tour recommended by our Hostel. It is always hard to know if they refer these because they get a great commission back but it was great. It is a long day out but if you are not keen to waste 2 days doing tours of Tuscany then you get it all in one day with this. The Tour Guide was great and the sights are amazing. If you are in Florence or similar and thinking of not going out into the country side shake yourself. You need to see this country.
