I come to Florence every Fall for a week to work, write, and eat. Pietro's place felt like home. I love places that have old unusual furniture mixed with functional new pieces. This place felt like I was actually living in Florence. I had several warm interactions with neighbors in the elevator helping with groceries, holding the door, etc. A comfy high-quality bed where you fall asleep and wake up to the Maria del Fiore Duomo out your window. The kitchen was the most useable kitchen with knives that cut, salt and pepper, coffee / tea / water ready for me. While it was in the middle of downtown it had double windows so it was quiet. I was working there doing video calls with the US = worked great except for 9pm when the whole building is online at same time. Otherwise, not a problem. The whole place was worth it just to have Pietro's list of restaurants.
