My wife and I stayed at Halfway suite for 7 nights in September 2019.

The first thing that I could say is that for anyone wanting to start an Airbnb property, come and stay here. This is how is should be done!

First of all, before our trip, Paolo was in regular communication with us at each step of the way. It really felt like we were travelling to stay at a friends place.

On our arrival, Paolo met us at the apartment, after very clear directions on how best to get here. He gave us a thorough and entertaining review of the apartment and the amazing building that it is part of. Such a historical landmark in itself. Although we were tired after a long flight, we enjoyed this great introduction to the wonderful city of Florence.

The apartment is simply perfect. Everything you need for a comfortable stay, and some amazingly thoughtful touches to make your stay easy. We truly felt at home here.

Whilst in the middle of the bustling streets of Florence, it is a haven of tranquility from the moment you close the giant green gate behind you and enter the building courtyard.

One block away is a busy area of restaurants and cafes, and a supermarket where you can get everything you need, and just a five minute walk from the Duomo.

We could not imagine a better place to stay in Florence. We thoroughly recommend Halfway Suite to anyone wanting a taste of Florentine life, and Paolo is an absolute gem of a host. He won’t let you have a stay that is anything less than wonderful…..
