Recently, my husband and I traveled with friends to Florence and stayed at Ludovico’s Florence apartment. The apartment was fabulous!
It was easy to get to, once we figured out how to get to the garage where we made arrangements to park our cars during our stay (cars are not allowed in the center of the city unless you have a special permit). The apartment is located steps away from just about everything! The location could not be beat.
There are five bedrooms, four on the main floor and one upstairs. Each room had its own unique qualities. Two of the bedrooms (both king-sized beds) had second floor lofts - one had a TV sitting area and the other had a huge soaking tub. The third bedroom had two twin beds. The fourth bedroom on the main floor had a king and was tucked back under an adorable sloping roof. The fifth bedroom was upstairs (we did not use this room), and I think the bed was a double. All bedrooms had their own bathrooms. We were all very comfortable in our rooms, with comfortable mattresses and some space to spread out.
The living areas of the house were spacious and comfortable. The dining room table seats maybe 12 or more? The kitchen is nicely equipped. We had a small dinner party and had all the equipment we needed to make dinner for 10. The whole space is very unique and stylish.
Breakfasts were eaten out on the amazing outdoor patio. What a treat! The patio has relaxing seating and a large table. It is tucked away from the other apartments, so you do not feel like you are disturbing anyone while you are out. We spent a few evenings out on the patio talking and enjoying Italian wine.
The apartment is located on the fifth floor. There is a small elevator in the building, so no worries about getting suitcases up to the apartment.
This Airbnb experience could not have been easier! Ludovico was responsive and professional. His assistant, Ilda, was helpful and informative.
I would highly recommend staying at Ludovico’s. It was very hard to find a place that had enough bedrooms for all of us, but this apartment fit the bill and was a perfect spot for us to enjoy our Italian vacation with friends.
