I’ve stayed in many AirB&Bs now but I think this little apartment, located in a small, vibrant and culture-filled district of Florence - is close to perfect. It matches the description exactly but what you don’t know until you stay is how wonderfully clean, neat and well-provided it is. Here, you get the best of an old, characterful building located in the heart of a trendy, vibrant district of Florence but with all the modern updates needed to make a stay comfortable and pleasurable. If you’re a light sleeper (as I am), then you’ll be reassured to know that the outside nightlife can be completely shut out (if you wish) with modern, effective shutters and windows. As a lady travelling alone (I spent 2 weeks at nearby Scuola Toscana to brush up my language skills), I felt completely safe and indeed quickly felt part of the local ‘buzz’ and life. The apartment is within a stone’s-throw of a fabulous gelateria, a bakery (where I had the best focaccia) and a handful of super little ristorante and bars. It’s also walking distance to everywhere you might want to go in Florence. I highly, highly recommend this AirB&B for solo and couple travellers. Ciao!
