What a fabulous apartment!
We are seasoned travellers in our 30's and have used AirBnB over a dozen times. This apartment was one of my favourites.
We were met by David's friend Mattia who was very friendly and spent some time showing us the attractions on a map as well as restaurant recommendations around the city (we tried 2 of the suggestions which were both excellent!) Check-in was smooth with no issues at all.
The location of the apartment excellent, only a 10 minute walk from the station (900 metres). The walk is flat and easy, we had two wheeled suitcases + backpacks and did it with no problems.
There are restaurants across the road and down the street as well as a Carrefour supermarket within a 2 minute walk.
You are only a 3km easy walk to the historic district. Very walkable.
The apartment itself is modern and beautiful. It has a unique design with a small single bed downstairs (plus a laundry with washing machine). Head upstairs and you will find a kitchenette with fridge/freezer and everything you will need to cook if you wish. There is a dining table and lounge area with flat screen TV. There is a large Queen bed which is very comfortable and a bathroom with separate shower which is modern and clean.
The Wifi worked consistently and without any issue.
The apartment was quiet and has noise cancelling windows so there is no noise from the street. Air conditioning keeps the apartment cool and shutters can keep the apartment dark if you want to sleep in. Or, you can open them up for a bright start to your morning.
Cannot recommend this apartment enough. It made our stay in Florence so much more enjoyable when you can come home to a modern, clean and comfortable space!
Would not hesitate to book again.
