First, let me say that Michele is an amazing host. He met me near the train station and accompanied me back toward the loft. He was very gracious, providing tidbits about the area and recommendations for dining. He even drew me a map!

The loft is exactly as it's described and appears in the photos. It is perfectly situated near anything one could possibly wish to visit in Florence. It is literally a 5-10 minute walk to everything!

A few things about the loft. There is an iron, which was great as I brought a suit and needed to steam it before a dinner. The toilet is a bit noisy after flushing, but this did not bother me. Also, whomever commented previously about the wi-fi being weak is correct. As that person commented, the best place for the strongest signal really is to sit in the middle of either of the red sofas.

This was my very first Airbnb experience and I really cannot say enough how amazing it was. Michele said that I could call him if I needed anything, but there was never any need.

I was in Florence!

Grazie mille, Michele!

(And there is a great cafe across from the loft called Caffe S. Trinita. Best sandwich I've ever had!)
