This was a belated birthday trip to Italy for my brother and me. This was our second airbnb, first with the host, and Laura was wonderful. I don't think my brother could have found someone with more things in common to talk about! Despite our late arrival, soup and conversation were ready and waiting. The location worked out great, nice, quiet, with quick bus access and a huge supermarket (bring a bottle for the free mineral water!). The room was private, beds were big, the cat was friendly, and a fridge shelf for our shopping. Laura tipped us off to the Tuesday market (huge!) and the best gelato place we visited. Laura made us feel like real guests in Florence, and not just another tourist stop-over.
