Gherardo’s place was exactly as described. It’s spacious, clean, and well-located. The apartment is located on the opposite side of the river from the center of town, but was close enough to walk to everything within 30 minutes. The apartment is well equipped with everything you’d need if you wanted to cook, though we only ate breakfast there since there were so many wonderful restaurants and bars nearby. We also appreciated the washer and dryer since we were in the middle of a two week trip. Gherardo was a great host from start to finish. He waited for us outside his door when we arrived, had a bottle of Chianti ready on the table, and gave us a rundown not only of the apartment but of things to do and places to eat. My partner and I are vegan and he even had a whole list of recommendations of places with veg options before we even asked. We thought that was a really nice touch. He checked in with us a couple of times, but was unobtrusive and responded very quickly if we had any questions or concerns. We wished we could have stayed longer!
