I cannot praise Casa Ghibellina enough! First of all, the location is beyond perfect: 5 to 7 minutes walk to all the historical attractions in Florence. You can walk everywhere, even the train station to catch the tours. Tons of great local restaurants all around!
The apartment itself is incredibly spacious, quaint and with a vintage feel to it. I loved that! Very clean and super comfortable.
Most importantly, Carmine is amazing!!! He waited so late for me to check in when I arrived (late Saturday evening) and was helpful, prompt and responsive the entire time. He gave me excellent recommendations of local restaurants and how to get to all the places. For my last day, he ordered the taxi for me which arrived promptly at 9.30am
I could not have picked a better place with a more gracious host. I had a perfect vacation. Thank you!!! Hope to be back sometime soon again ...
