If you want to be pamper don’t delay your booking. Giovanni’s place is a beautiful and comfortable place to go back in time with precious old times furniture that will transport you to the XV century. The apartment is located in a quiet all around Italian neighborhood. 25-30 minute bus ride to downtown and explore the beauty of Florence. Giovanni is absolutely THE BEST HOST ever. Giovanni will have a red folder on the kitchen table awaiting for you with all the details you need to know for your vacation in Florence. He has among things recommendations on places to eat and shop. We stayed only 2 nights so couldn’t take advantage of all his recommendations but we did go to a walking distance Italian restaurant he had recommended. OMG it was perfect. Delicious Italian food, great and prompt service, incredible clientele, the whole atmosphere and the prices (so cheap) was redemption after a long day of touring around. If I could give Giovanni 10 stars I would. He is a 5 stars all the way around. Thank you Giovanni.
