If you are considering a stay in Florence, look no further than Gaia & Pietro's place. This loft is as beautiful as the pictures portray and even more comfortable than we had imagined when initially booking. Stafano met us outside the apartment on our arrival to Florence and made the check in extremely smooth and opened up communication for us; while we did not require additional assistance, it was nice to have a personal check in and invitation to engage should we need anything. This loft is both relaxing and homelike while also managing to be a beautiful part of history and art. The home was equipped with anything we might need for our stay, including a washing machine, which seemed like a good parachute when traveling with our 6 month old daughter. Stefano even offered to set us up with use of a dryer, should we need it during our stay. The location is perfect and surprisingly quiet for being in the heart of Florence and central to excellent restaurants and shopping. We couldn't be more pleased with our stay in this lovely home and would not hesitate to book again when we return to this magical city.
