Paolo’s house is PERFECT!! If you are looking for a place to stay in Florence, this is it - you won’t find a better location, everything is walking distance and even though the apartment is located in a very lively area, the bedroom is super quiet, we didn’t hear a thing of what was going on outside when we were sleeping , so don’t worry about the noise.
Paolo is a great host and he checked in with us a couple of times to see how everything was going. He replied super fast always and gave us very good tips for food and on how to get to the airport.
I super recommend this place, it is located in the 3rd floor and you will have to climb the stairs but it really didn’t bother us one bit.
