My sister and I stayed at Paolo's beautiful apartment for only one night- we wish we had had more time! The apartment is 2minutes from the Boboli Gardens, 5mins from Ponte Vecchio one way and 5 mins to the Brancacci Chapel the other way. UIt's very central yet located on a quiet side street.
The room had everything we needed and was really clean and bright.
Paolo have us lots of information about the important sites and galleries and there are maps and leaflets in the apartment as well.
The area has lots of nice restaurants and bars.
Paolo met us earlier than the usual check in time and also allowed us to check out the next evening as he had no new guests coming that night, which was very thoughtful. I hope to return soon, it was perfect!
