Gianni E Barbara are absolutely fantastic hosts. We arrived at 3pm to Gianni waiting for us in the apartment. He gave us a quick rundown of everything in the apartment including the lights, kitchen appliances, washer, air conditioning, and bathroom. Then he pulled out a map of Florence and began highlighting the key points of interest along with a few recommendations for where to eat and some more off the beaten path type points of interest. Without his recommendations we certainly wouldn’t have had as great of a time in Florence as we did. Lastly, as a nice touch he included a few bottles of water, a bottle of wine, and some other little treats for us. If you plan on visiting Florence you should absolutely check out Gianni E Barbara’s place.
