Silvia and Carla's place exceeded expectations. The photos don't do it justice - it is simply a magical unit. The sky high painted ceilings and exquisitely stylish decor are beyond comprehension. This is the nicest AirBnb I have ever stayed at and I've used this service on multiple continents. Large and beautiful kitchen as well as a spacious patio were simply even better than expected, I can't say it enough! The unit was also incredibly clean and my friends and I felt like chic artists living in a deam converted apartment with art everywhere and the bedrooms made you feel like Renaissance royalty. I'm not even over exaggerating.
Their responses were lightening fast and were very hospitable. Florence is an incredibly beautiful city and the location was ideal to stay in a unique area that was only a 10-15 minute walk into the city center where it can feel touristy. The location here however succeeded in my goal of having a "locals" experience. Absolutely wouldn't stay anywhere else in Florence.. only at the Twins Boboli!
(Extra bonus: They went so far as to create a suggested itinerary of things we could see/accomplish based on how many days we were in town. Absolutely out of their own generosity and unexpected. Extra thanks to the twins!)
