Simone and Luca’s home is centrally located in a quiet block, with a scenic rooftop patio view. As some other travelers described, the space definitely photographs bigger and although it was great for us (my husband and I), I can’t imagine sleeping more than 2-3 people. We slept on the couch downstairs as the loft was hard to get in and out of. The pictures make it look a bit taller.
The only issue we had was that the first night during our stay, my husband got absolutely eaten alive by mosquitoes (more than 20+ bites). I now understand mosquitoes are common in Florence, but we were given no warning or no advice as to how to keep them at bay (plug-ins, candles, spray, etc.) which we have received from other hosts in the past. To make matters worse, the second night we slept with all of the windows closed to keep them out and it was stifling hot all evening. The one fan available wasn’t working, so we had a terrible nights sleep due to the discomfort and we got bit anyway.
Also, there were no toiletires beyond hand soap which I felt was uncommon for all the other Airbnb’s we’ve ever stayed in so come prepared.
Aside from that, the loft was stylish and seemed to have what we needed for a quick stay. Had we not had the issues with the bug bites and the heat (no fan), we would have had a much better experience.
