Great and safe location, conveniently located within walking distance to restaurants and main sites of Florence like Uffizi Gallery, Vecchio Bridge and Palace, Pauazza del Duomo. There is also a bus stop just down the street. Casual and fine dining, shopping and gelato stores are within steps from the door. Gian Paola is an extremely friendly host and very accommodating. He took the time to discuss the local area with us and gave us all the information we need to get settled into the apartment. And a nice touch they provided bread, wine, cookies, water and juice on our arrival. Some positives about our stay are that they provided quality linens and towels. The apartment was an adequate space and accommodations for our family of six. There were A/C units in the main living area and 2 out of 3 bedrooms and we felt it was a very good value and priced well!
Our only cons:
Make note that there is a steep staircase leading to the condo with narrow steps and many lower door ways and ceilings that tall people need to be aware of. The two twin beds in the loft area
had hard mattresses. Also, we were asked to sign an Italian Rental contract. Gian Paola did provide a copy in English but no other AirBNB properties we used during our trip to Italy required a separate rental agreement. However, these are minor details and did not negatively affect our stay. We recommend that you stay there and we would again as well!
