A beautiful, stylish, spacious and elegant apartment only 2 blocks from Santa Croce. Every convenience, lighting, bathrooms, showers, kitchen is brand new and every design detail - frescoed ceilings, tiled floors, massive windows, gorgeous woodwork - is lovingly preserved. Each bedroom has its own meticulously clean bathroom stocked with luxury hotel-like amenities, shaving kits, toothbrushes, soaps, shampoos...and each fridge (kitchen and bedrooms each have their own) is stocked with a few considerate drinks, snacks and chocolate, perfect for an evening "second wind" before heading out, or a late night munchie attack. Alessandro the gracious host has thought of every detail in the renovation of this gorgeous palazzo...my 80 year old father appreciated the many easily accessible light switches (rare in a historic apt) and small book collection, and my 19 year old stepson enjoyed having his own tv 91 in each bedroom) and privacy up on the 2nd floor. I enjoyed the welcome bottle of wine and all of Alessandro's insider tips on Florence cafes, restaurants and museums. His cousin runs the Medici Museum 2 blocks from the Duomo, very enjoyable small jewel of a museum on the way to the Museo dei Innocenti. By far my favorite AirBnB experience, living like an elegant Florentine local with luxury of hotel amenities and a wonderful host and guide! Highly recommended.
