This was our third Airbnb stay, and what a great host Guido was. Friendly, welcoming and helpful. He lives in the apartment right next door. He even arranged for a taxi pickup for us when we were leaving.

The apartment is as described and pictured. It provided plenty of room with a comfortable bed. The wi-fi was powerful. His written instruction book was clear.

There is a third floor patio common area in the courtyard with potted flowers, a table and chairs available. I enjoyed a lovely glass of Amaretto there one night.

The apartment is in the old city and very conveniently located, just a few blocks north of the Arno. We were a 3 minute walk to the Palazzo Vecchio and Uffizi Museum in one direction, and to the Ponte Vecchio 3 minutes in a different direction.

There was a big (by European standards) supermarket just across the Ponte Vecchio and another smaller one also close by. Guido gave us directions to both as well as a great restaurant near the Palazzo Vecchio.

We ate at another great restaurant 3 doors west of Guido's.

As to the neighborhood itself, this is an ancient city that the guide books can describe better than I. Fascinating.

We wish we could have stayed longer.
