This was my first Airbnb experience and it was fabulous! The apartment is stunning and I was lucky enough to be the first person to stay there after the host, Cristina, completely remodeled it. Everything in the place was brand new and it was redone very tastefully with minimalist decor. It is on the top floor of a three unit building, is bright and sunny and it is equivalent to a fourth floor walk-up. If you don't mind the stairs, this place is an amazing find!

Cristina was very responsive and so helpful and nice, providing instructions for everything in the apartment and a map of her favorite places in the neighborhood. She even contacted me after the first night since there had been a big storm in the middle of the night and she wanted to make sure everything was OK. The neighborhood is lively and a close walk to all the major sites in Florence.

If all Airbnb properties are as nice as this one, I may never stay in a hotel again!
