I stayed at Matteo's (with Gigi) for the spring semester at school and it was the perfect home base for learning to live in Italy. The location is top notch, with tons of great stores nearby and being close to the center of Florence, but still in a residential neighborhood that lets you live as a local. I really appreciated the balcony and the view to the mountains. With my own little suite I felt so cozy and was able to settle in and focus on my work, but it was also a quick run into the city for museums or errands. Matteo also is so considerate and generous and helpful with everything, which gave me so much peace of mind. Thank you so much for sharing your home!
