Alessandro is a fantastic host. This review took just a bit due to our extended vacation and challenging connectivity but the memories are all happily treasured. The apartment was amazing; the furnishings were of impeccable taste, just so well done! The terrace was simply wonderful both morning and evening. His hospitality began with a personal tour of the apartment upon arrival. For our convenience, he had also sent videos of things that might have been complicated with only written directions. The handy phone mentioned in the description of the apartment was likely the most valuable asset of all; we used it each day as a hot spot and for local suggestions which Alessandro had noted. We would love to vouch for his recommendation of Obio for breakfast- just perfect, and we had our first dinner which was equally incredible at il Santo Bevitore Ristorante which we would never have found without the phone suggestions. Every detail was handled for us, including a bottle of wine and other beverages stocked for our convenience. Thank you, Alessandro, for an amazing stay; I would stay nowhere else when visiting Florence!
