I spent a night in Firenze at Grabielle’s for medical exams I was having done at the nearby hospital. It was my first time doing AirBnB, so I was very excited to be greeted with ambient music and an aperitivo. I spent most of the time resting (due to my illness), but if I had the energy to go sit on the balcony, Gabrielle was always nearby and eager to chat. Such an interesting lady with such interesting souvenirs from all her travels! So patient with my barely existent Italian, always with a reaffirming nod anytime I got something right but still had a huge question mark on my face.
I didn’t realize we wouldn’t have access to the kitchen, but she did let us use the fridge. I don't think it's possible to lock bedroom or bathroom. The bed was a bit hard and the pillows a bit flat for me personally, but not worn and I think they're perfect for tourists who don't spend all day in bed. I really appreciated the reclining lawn chair on the balcony! The only real issue was the heat, which is already very bad in June, but it was so much better with the little fan in the room on!
