We had a great stay at Riccardo’s place, and we would love to come back. The historic building truly makes it feel like Florence. The location is excellent - close to sights, shopping, and restaurants. It was nice having all the space, high ceilings, and being able to spread out. The apartment is also tastefully decorated and the bed was comfortable. The location is in the heart of Florence on a high-end shopping street, so it does come with the sound of city streets - buses, vespas, and people, however, we were so tired from exploring that we slept through it. They also supply you with earplugs if you need it. The apartment also has air conditioning which was a nice benefit.
Riccardo was a great host, very organized, and made sure we had a special stay!
