In one word - perfection! First of all, Giovanni was extremely welcoming and walked us through everything we needed to know and offered to help with anything we needed during our stay. Second - location, location, location! We couldn't have asked for a better home base in Florence - we walked all over the city and could easily pop home to rest our feet and just take a break when we needed it. Our favorite restaurant that Giovanni recommended and we'd read great reviews of (we ate there twice in 5 days!) was literally a few doors down. A 5 minute walk from the Ponte Vecchio and close to our favorite gelato place - best gelato we had in our two weeks in Italy. The apartment itself was perfect - exactly what we expected from the photos and the listing. A cute studio with a super clean, modern, renovated bathroom and cute little kitchenette. It was more than enough space for two of us and super cosy and comfortable. We're already dreaming of our next trip and our next stay at Giovanni's studio in Santo Spirito!
