Luca was a fantastic host. My flight was delayed and he was very flexible with my check in time. The home was very clean and true to the photos upon arrival. The apartment has multiple doors to unlock before entering so it feels very safe. I stayed in Luca’s apartment for 3 months while studying abroad. Initially, the worst part was the noise from the street in the morning. It is very loud and if you like to sleep in, you will have trouble sleeping past 9 am. After a while, I adapted to the noise and it did not bother me so much.
Luca was very quick to respond to all my questions and concerns prior to my stay as well as while I was in Florence. One night I was locked out and he met me at the apartment within the half hour to open the door for me.
It is about a ten minute walk from the train station and 20 minute drive from the airport so traveling throughout Europe was very easy. I developed a sense of home during my stay at Luca’s apartment and I would highly recommend this space for anyone who plans a long term stay. Luca is a great and helpful host, the apartment is a perfect size for 1-2 people but can comfortably fit more with a pullout couch and a loft, and it is not more than a 10-15 minute walk from all the best restaurants, cafes, and sights to see.
