Paolo and his family are amazing hosts! It is very rare that your host serves you a freshly baked, home-made pie when it is raining outside and you are looking for a bit of comfort food! Also - Paolo facilitated an early check-in for us so we could make our time slot at the Uffizzi gallery. Grazie Paolo!
The house is brilliant - it has ample space and if you want to stay in an unwind that is an option as well. There is a big beautiful garden in the back and a super friendly and entertaining puppy that you can play with every day! After a day of exploring Florence there is nothing better than coming back home to Paolo's. It was truly a home away from home.
Location is superb with a number of buses stopping right outside the gate, and the downtown 20 mins away. Tons of shops around if you ever need anything, and the people are super friendly and welcoming. Downtown was flooded with tourists (us included), while this location allowed us to experience the local life.
Would highly recommend Paolo's place to anyone looking for a relaxing visit to Florence!
