Gherardo is an amazing host! My daughter and I were very impressed by his great hospitality, wonderful communication, kindness and attention to every detail. He really went the extra mile to help us and exceeded our expectations. We arrived earlier than check in time, he offered to have the apartment ready for us, waited to meet us at the door and took our suitcase up the stairs. On our way out, we had to catch a very early morning plane and Gherardo volunteered to call a taxi for us. He also welcomed us with very thoughtful local treats and information of the area. His apartment is impeccable: completely renovated, tastefully decorated, very clean, spacious, well equipped, comfortable and beautiful. It’s also centrally located, very safe and quiet. Our time in Florence was truly memorable. I highly recommend Gherardo as a host and would love to stay in his apartment again.
