Words can’t describe the artistry and design talents of this amazing host. His creative vision has transformed the apartment on Piazza dell’ Duomo, and we felt transported to another time, with all the creature comforts of our own.
Vasily and Irina are extraordinary hosts. They provide every amenity, the history of their 13th century building, and wonderful recommendations for dining and shopping. They kindly accommodated our unavoidable late arrival and stored bags the day we departed. Their love for people and their city came through every communication.
Despite our being in the very heart of Florence, looking down on throngs of visitors to the Duomo, the shuttered doors kept out light and sound, and we slept luxuriantly. The sweetest moments were late at night, when we looked out our open doors and had the entire Piazza dell’ Duomo to ourselves, but for a beautiful violinist playing below.
We have had many delightful AirBNB experiences, but this is in its own class. Grazie multo, multo, Vasily and Irina!
